Summer 2009
- More Silverware for SCRUFC
Congratulations to...
SCRUFC's spin off touch
rugby team. The "Touchy Feelies" took the honours last night in the divisional play-off final with a convincing 7-3 scoreline
over "The Misfits". The victory was all the more remarkable, as we had lost to them the previous week 5-3 in the final league
game.
In a game of two halves
(still a great phrase), we put a huge effort in the first, and pulled out a stunning 5-0 lead at half time. But with a depleted
squad, only seven players available, we came out for the second half very tired. The misfits boasting a squad of twelve were
able to capitalise with a try in the first 10 seconds. But we dug in deep, as we became more and more weary and bedraggled,
and held on to the last breath for a glorious victory.
The winning team was made
up of Ben Boyles, Ben Maddison, Richard Holdman, Ian Clements, Tom Faulkner Darren Kerr & Jim Wingfield.
But a mention should go
out to the other squad members who got us to the final. These were Dave Collins, Steve Gutsell, Rhian Williams, Shaun Wake,
Adrian Smith & Catriona Harrow.
