Highfield V Bandon (U18 Girls South Munster League)

In perfect rugby conditions the Bandon Girls played highfield girls in an evenly matched game.
Things started well for Bandon when a perfectly executed H-Bomb lineout gave Rebecca a break in our own 22. Rebecca evaded tackles to reach the opposition 22 where a perfect offload to Shona gave us our first try of the day.

Unfortunately an injury to Catherine made us realise just what a vital part of the squad she plays and her absebce was really felt in the lineout and rucks.

Highfield upped the pace now and a period of pressure led to their first try which was converted by an excellent kick.

Hitchcock now stepped up to the lineout and did some very impressive firsttime lifting. Both teams showed very impressive skills all round the pitch with excellent offloads, tackles and kicks throughout the match.

Unfortunately some strong running from a number of Highfield girls gave them the advantage and a number of tries were run in before bandon found a responce in an incredible break in our own 22 from the unstoppable Shona Roche.

Final score 31-10 but a very impressive display from both sides and a match where many players really started to play rugby properly for the first time....

Finally couldnt finish without mentioning mags clearance throw forwards down the pitch....just hope we caught it on Video.
