County Festival @ Dursley 22nd January

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.


Tewkesbury U10 v Evesham – 27th Nov

Tewkesbury played some really good rugby against Evesham on a sunny but windy Sunday morning. Tewkesbury put in an excellent performance in the scrummage against a larger pack (in the second game) once again driving Evesham off the ball on many occasions.  The rucking was strong and Tewkesbury were able to rip the ball away from the Evesham in the mauls. Evesham never gave up, for which they should be applauded, coming back strong in the first game with two tries. Excellent performance by Tewkesbury who will be glad of the training session next week to  fix some of the mistakes that are being made in defence. Well done boys we are very proud of the attitude you show each week.
