U15's Win Bowl in Herts 7's
Saracens U15s Girls won the Herts Girls 7's Bowl competition on Sunday. The girls, with help from the Grasshoppers' trio of Chloe, Tilly and Siobhan, beat West Oxon 25-0 in the final.
Sarries were drawn in a tough pool and the eventual winners of the Cup, Plate, Bowl and Shield all came from it. This is the 5th year the competition has been run and the 5th time Saracens Girls have played in a final, but only the second time they have come back with a trophy.
Hannah and Penny made debuts for the U15's in the competition and also scored their debut tries along the way, as did Sam. It was a fine squad performance with everybody playing an important part in getting to the final and everybody also getting pitch time in the final.
All that is except for Sophie who spent the night in hospital with broken ribs, following a tough pool game against the eventual Cup winners Paviors from Nottingham. We all wish her a speedy recovery.
End of the Season...
Well the rugby season has finished at last, and what a good season this has been. The U18's came 2nd in the league, and lost only a few games. The U15's didn't do so well in their league games, but managed to come away from the Herts 7's on the 17th May (with a little help from our friends at grasshoppers) with a bright shiny bowl and medals to go with it, which is a fantastic achievement. The U18's only came away with shield runners up medals, but it was a great day none the less. The new season brings with it age group changes again, and the U18's welcome in 7 new players moving up. Unfortunately from the top end we lose 4 great players, who will be sorely missed. However I am sure it won't be the last we see of them! So now it's time for a summer break and lie ins on sundays again. But thank you to everyone who has played so well this year, and good luck in all your exams!
REMEMBER! summer training continues on thursdays from 7:20...
