Year 7 Rugby

Year 7 Rugby Team went to Trafford MV RUFC
On Wednesday the 29th of January, the Year 7 Rugby Team went to Trafford MV RUFC to play in their third tournament of the season. Haydn Watson and Daniel O’Keefe led the team and their results went as follows:
- Against Wellington they lost 6 tries to 1.
- A tighter game against Ashton on Mersey saw Daniel touch down twice - The game finished 2-2.
- Finally, Stretford played Altrincham College, where they beat them 3-2. Tries came from Zac Sharp, Hayden Sons and Daniel once again.
The boys showed good support play and competence at the breakdown. However, tackling powerful runners remains to be an area of improvement for the Year 7 team. All in all, the boys won 1 match, drew a game and lost their first. Players voted for their Player of the Tournament, and that was Hayden Sons, for his support play and evasion with the ball. Mr Dutton’s Player of the Tournament went to Cham Singh who came on as a sub and showed wonderful tackling skills and aggression!
