Grove RFC U14s 22 vs 22 Chinnor U14s
Oxfordshire Cup
19th November 2023
A difficult start to the season didn't let up as Grove U14s welcomed Chinnor U14s to the Fortress on Sunday.
Grove off the back of a losing run faced a strong, in form Chinnor team in the first head to head between the sides.
Chinnor started the game strong and built an early lead with 2 quick tries, before Grove hit back with their own, a competitive and passionate game of rugby followed with the scores at 22 all with 10 minutes to go. Unfortunately a serious injury to one of Chinnor's players resulted in the abandonment of the game and a draw was a fair result.
We are pleased to confirm that the injured player is recovering well and the injury was not as serious as first feared.
"Hell of a game today, definitely good to see the lads in control of the game in the closing stages. Massive step in the right direction and looking forward to Henley next week." Steve Maryon, Head Coach, Grove RFC
