Last Thurs. evening Beach 1’s lost for the second time this season. an ungainly , 28-10 defeat to the Scottish. Too many errors, 6 Yellow cards(1 became Red) and too many give aways of the ball after good advancements, did us in. More speed and aggression from the back row is definitely in need to link forwards and backs.. Hopefully this week will see two determined practices as with a10 game schedule, early losses could sink the ship prematurely!

This Week – Tbe 1’s and 2’s visit Ontario’s Queen City, Peterborough, to take on the newly promoted and very keen Pagans KO at 1:30 and 3 pm
The Academies, 1 and 2, Host the Beavers from Brampton at 1:30 and 3.
The Senior Ladies host the Mississagua Blues at Noon

Back in the saddle! And so the season commences and with a whimper, I hear. Our lads get outsmucked by those Lindsay lads,again! 49-12 loss. Not a great start when considering we have only 10 league fixtures with which to work! Perhaps the scrummage and forward lessons from last Cup Final have faded?

The other Sr teams fared much better, although Lindsay was unable to field even a second team and we are awarded a 20-0 default.
The Academy squadjumped in front to trounce the Bucs, 54-15 whilst the Academy 2 also handled their opponent 22-0
The Beach Sr ladies had an ominous start with a 65-0 whomping of the Yeo Lions

NEXT

Thurs May 17 – Beach 1 vs Toronto Scottish at Fletcher’s at 7 p.m. Should be a cracker!

Everyone will then rev up for the May 24th long weekend!!!
