A bitter and wet morning greeted all players and coaches on Sunday 30th November. Our visitors were Enfield Ignatians and they came with a selection of teams – under 8’s under 9’s under 12’s and some mixed ages.
After they had warmed themselves up in the clubhouse they took to the field!
Trying to keep the youngsters warm, the initial drills using tackle bags and a swift game of rugby netball heated up even the coldest of kids.

The matches were played with great enthusiasm and in the spirit of team play and tries were scored equally in the under 9’s whilst great tagging enabled the under 8’s to take the lead and finally come out winners.
Coach Paul Parker Brice said “ The team are now really playing well together, they are supporting each other and tagging which has let us down previously is now one of our main features, well done to all those who took part”

Under 9’s coach ‘spud’ after the match said “ we played well, I know it was cold out there and some players felt it, all gave their best and I feel they learnt a few new skills, one being how to tackle the ‘Tank’!

Enfield U12s celebrated their first victory of the season with a 7-0 win over Pinner & Grammarians. Alex Bucknall broke the deadlock after driving his way over the back of a scrum.
Coach Steve Renny said: "I was particularly happy with our scrummaging, but we invariably aim to enjoy ourselves whether we win or lose."
