County Festival – 14th April 2013

by | Apr 14, 2013 | Club Info, Under 11's

Another great day at the County Cup for Tewkesbury RFC U11s

Pool A

Tewkesbury 10 v Old Richians 5
Tewkesbury 0 v Old Patesians 10
Tewkesbury 0 v Cinderford 30

The results provided Tewkesbury with a place in the Plate Quarter Finals against Spartans. Tewkesbury spent the majority of the match camped in their half but the score was 0 – 0 and Spartans went through on try countback.

The boys tried their hardest and I was a proud coach as once again they showed great determination and never gave up.

Well done boys.

Land Rover Cup Cirencester – 7th April 2013

by | Apr 7, 2013 | Club Info, Under 11's

Today saw Tewkesbury Under 11s take part in the Land Rover Cup at Rendcomb in Cirencester.

Tewkesbury were probably involved in  the toughest group with Cinderford, Clifton and Cirencester being the other teams involved.

It was going to be hard and another tough day with seven of our squad unavailable.

Our first game was against a strong Cinderford side. However a lot of the first half saw Tewkesbury match Cinderford and hold them  until just before half time when quick hands saw them score. The second half was a different story seeing Tewkesbury miss a lot of tackles and Cinderford score three tries.

Our second game would be against easier opposition in Cirencester and Tewkesbury didn’t disappoint starting strongly and showing they were capable of playing some quality Rugby. Four tries were scored by B.Roberts, S.Thomas, T.Leggett and E.Perry.

This left the boys going into the Third Game against Clifton pretty upbeat but this was always going to be a tough game. Clifton were too strong and scored three tries unopposed.

Tewkesbury 0 – Cinderford 20

Tewkesbury 20 – Cirencester 0

Tewkesbury 0 – Clifton 15

It was not a surprise to see the two teams who beat us fight it out in the final for the Cup. Well done to Cinderford who eventually came out on top as winners.

Hopefully with a full squad next week we will provide better results as we go to the rearranged County Festival at Cirencester.

U11’s v Cinderford

by | Mar 3, 2013 | Club Info, Under 11's

A match that we had tried to play twice before and which had been postponed due weather was finally able to go ahead.

Tewkesbury started poorly  with Cinderford taking advantage on a number of occasions from strong rucking, and fast hands. Cinderford were also very dominant in the scrum allowing an excellent platform to play fast running rugby. Tewkesbury defended well on a number of occasions but were unable to hold out.  Tewkesbury rallied a little in the second half and attacked the Cinderford defence which also proved strong. Tewkesbury played really well and and put pressure on the Cinderford attacking line not giving them as much time as they had had in the first half. Strong tackling from S.Thomas,  J.Carter and O.Osbourne and M.Dibble slowed the Cinderford  attack. Good running from deep by T.Legget and E.Perry also allowed Tewkesbury to show a better second half showing. Tewkesbury fought hard in the forwards with good work from N.Knight, A.Cole and B.Roberts.

The final score in the first game was 0 – 55. A well deserved win for an excellent rugby side.

The second game showed a stronger Tewkesbury side. Even though they conceded  a couple of tries Tewkesbury never gave up, even though the pressure was relentless. They were rewarded after a number of strong attacks into the Cinderford half  with a try by J.Carter and T.Leggett converted. Cinderford once again played excellent running rugby scoring and converting a third  try.

The final score in the second game was 7 – 21.

An excellent committed game by both teams and all players. Well done all.

Tries : J.Carter  Conversion : T.Leggett

Team :  N. Knight, B. Roberts, A. Cole, T. Rothwell , A.Newing, M. Dibble,  S.Thomas, W.Sayers , J. Carter, O. Osbourne, E.Perry, T.Leggett.  Subs: W. Alonso, J.Roberts, C.Janes, L.Keen

Old Richians v Tewkesbury – 21st October 2012

by | Oct 22, 2012 | Club Info, Under 11's

Old Richians 38 – Tewkesbury 42

We found ourselves playing on a cold and foggy morning at Old Richians with both teams knowing this would be a good game as history has proven over the last few years.

Once again Tewkesbury started poorly  with Old Richians showing the way scoring three unanswered tries in the 9th, 11th and 17th minutes respectively. All three tries were converted. Tewkesbury rallied a little and scored through N.Knight after an excellent solo run by E.Perry.  Tewkesbury missed the conversion. The game then yo-yo’d with Richians scoring  again and converting after a number of missed tackles by Tewkesbury.  O. Osbourne then scored and converted for Tewkesbury.

The second half showed a different and resilient Tewkesbury side who after conceding a 5th and 6th try to Old Richians came back into the game strongly with N. Knight scoring and S.Thomas converting and S.Thomas scoring and B.Roberts converting. We then saw S.Thomas kick over the Richains defence with N.Knight robbing the ball off the catcher and passing to O.Osbourne who ran in his second try of the game and N.Knight converted. From the kick off Tewkesbury took the ball forward and after three amazing dummies J.Brinn scored to bring the try count to 6 all. The conversion was missed.

An excellent committed game by both teams. Well done all.

Trys : O.Osbourne (2), N.Knight (2), S.Thomas, J. Brinn

Team :  B. Roberts, J. Brinn, N. Knight, T. Rothwell , A.Newing, C.Janes,  S.Thomas, W.Sayers , J. Carter, O. Osbourne, E.Perry, T.Leggett
