It was a dry Sunday afternoon when Tewkesbury hosted our second home game against Bromsgrove.
Both teams are newly formed this season but this was Bromsgrove’s 1st game.
They were short of numbers so we lent them 3 of our players including a very experienced Ellen(Alan) Wells.
The game kicked off and instantly number 8, Rebecca Woodward ran through from outside the 22 for our 1st try.
The girls then put over a succession of tries with Olivia Rendell getting her first ever try.
The tries were aplenty with Rats and Jess also getting their fist tries.
Scrum half Gemma Green found her previous form and scored twice, Rachael Green and Shannon also scored.
Therza Peters got our third hat trick of the season.
Kayleigh Bartlett converted 4.
Final score 63-0
Although the score looks one sided, I assure you that the Bromsgrove girls did not take things lightly.
After a reshuffle in their pack they started pushing us and contesting well.
They were very close to scoring several times but only held at bay due to a very tight Tewkesbury defence.
The girls should feel very proud of their performance and I am sure they will continue to improve.
We look forward to visiting them in march for our return fixture.
All in all a great display of rugby by all.

When we arrived we found out that our pool had changed completely and we were in what seemed to be the hardest group of all.
The team rose to the challenge and never disappointed as always.
Our first game was against Lydney. Sam Thomas scored early in the first half providing us with the start we needed. A strong battle ensued between two evenly matched sides. Lydney went onto score two tries to take the win.
MOM – S.Thomas
Our second game was against St Mary’s Old Boys who proved to be very strong and injuries to key players, loss of structure and a lack of tackling saw Tewkesbury go down to a large defeat.
MOM – N. Knight
Our third game was against Bredon Star. The team picked themselves up from the previous game and provided an extremely entertaining and close game. Jack Brinn came very close to giving Tewkesbury the lead early in the first half after some strong attacking rugby but unfortunately was held up on the line. Bredon subsequently scored two tries to secure the win.
MOM – E.Perry
Our final match was against Stroud which again provided a very good and close game with both teams rucking and counter rucking extremely well. Stroud scored two tries to win the match.
MOM – J.Brinn
We were extremely proud of the team as they never gave up and fought hard against strong opposition.
Well done boys and girl.
Thanks to all our dedicated supporters who are always there.
Looking forward to next year.
