NATIONAL CUP 26/04

Today was the next round of the national cup.We were up againast 3 other teams. First up was a match against paviors.We had lost to them a few weeks ago 34-0.But todays game was going to be a bit tighter.Started the game slowly and conceeded a try in the first few minutes. Hit back within a few minutes with a try from liv. The rest of the half was a tight affair and half time it was 5-5.Paviors started the second half strongly and were stopped with a try saving tackle from libby.The match was end to end with both teams having chances to score.Eventually worcester had a penalty which was missed. The game looked like it was going to end level when paviors scored with a minute to go and went on to win the game 12-5.

Next up was morpeth. Morpeth scored first but worcester hit back with a converted try to make the game 7-5 to worcester at half time.In the second half we had to shuffle a few things around due to several injuries. Morpeth stepped up a gear and scored 3 more trys. Final score morpeth 20 worcester 7.

The last game of the day was played 10 a side due to tydlesley have only 10 players available and it was decided to play this game as a friendly as both teams could not progress to the next round.Good competitive first half of rugby. Worcester scored first to lead 7-0 but tydlesley then hit back to go 15-7 ahead. A good move just before half time led to lark breaking through the defence who passed to liv to score which was converted by tash. Half time 15-14 to tydlesley. Just after lark had passed to liv she was controversly tackled by a tydlesley player and the worcester coaches decided this was not the spirit in which the game should be played and withdrew the team for the second half as this game was supposed to have been a friendly.

Paviors won the last game against morpeth and will now play welwyn in the national u/15s cup final.Some of your rugby today was really good and remember in the last 2 weeks you have played both the teams competing in the national cup final and have lost by only a single try in both games.
