Grove U8s away at Abingdon

Paul Coleman

Another great turnout by Grove U8s away at Abingdon.

A great turnout by the U8s gave us 3 teams to play against Abingdon. We started with a joint training session with the Abingdon players where we showed them how to place Mice and Monsters and then they showed us a great tagging game where players have to work in pairs and threes to tag the remaining players. Good fun and some important lessons in communication and teamwork.

We then had the chance to play a few matches with each of our 3 teams taking it turns to play Abingdon. Some great rugby by both teams resulting in some very exciting matches. We have been working hard on our tagging over the last few weeks so it was great to see this really coming together with some awesome tags.

Many thanks to the Abingdon players and coaches for hosting us and for the hotdogs after the matches.

Next week we are back at Grove for training - see you all then. New players welcome as always.
