Effingham & Leatherhead 'A' Festival
A great outlook to the weather on arriving at Effingham and Leatherhead RFC for their 'A' festival. Words over the loud speaker, welcoming everyone to this festival and commenting on last years weather, for those who attended (something you wouldn’t forget in a hurry)
Well done to the players selected to represent our U10s squad at this festival, Ben B, Charlie A, Daniel D, Fraser, George, Jack, Matthew W, Miles, Rupert, Sam, Sebastian, Tim P and William.
The are five teams in each group playing 12-minute games - 6 minutes each way.
Group 1 – Effingham, Camberley, Farnham, Chipstead, Sutton & Epsom B
Group 2 – Old Rutlishians, Old Reedonians, Richmond, Chobham, Effingham B
Our players warmed up ready for their first game against Farnham.
Camberley results
Camberley 0 v Farnham 1
Camberley 0 v Chipstead 1 (With a little help!)
Camberley 2 v Effingham 2 (Tries Sam and Charlie)
Camberley 3 v Sutton 0 (Tries Jack, Fraser and George)
Well done to the squad for all their efforts, the scores didn't reflect our possession and the pressure placed on our opposition, as we spent much of our time 'camped out' in their halves and on their try line.
Camberley were fourth in the group and went onto the semi finals of The ‘School Selector’ Plate and were drawn against Richmond.
Camberley 0 v Richmond 2.
With all their effort and hard work, they were finally running out of steam.
A special mention goes to Tim P and Matthew W who stepped up to the mark in joining the A squad today They did admirally during the highly charged and competitive matches – Hope you both enjoyed yourselves!.
Tim and the coaches went back to the tent to congratulate the players for their efforts today. See you all at training next Sunday.
