Surrey 'A' Festival - Sunday 19th April 2009
It was going to be a very busy day looking at the queues for the car parks, as so many were arriving for this huge event, the Surrey ‘A’ festival at Dorking RFC
Well done to the players selected to represent our U10s squad at this festival, Ben, Blake, Charlie A, Daniel D, Fraser, Freddie, George, Jack, Miles, Rupert, Sam, Sebastian, Tim and William.
There are 24 teams entered in this u10’s competition. Eight groups of 3 teams playing 12 minute games - 6 minutes each way on four pitches.
We were drawn against Old Reigatians and Reeds.
Camberley results
Camberley 1 v Reeds 1
Camberley 0 v Old Reigatians 4
Camberley certainly had the better of Reeds during this match, with great energy and tackling throughout. Blake with the try to put Camberley 1 up. At the end of the second half Reeds squeezed over to finish the game 1-1
Against Old Reigatians, Camberley were not as organised as our opposition in the forward play. Old Reigatians ripped the ball well with quick passing along their lines. Camberley had their chances as well, but were beaten by a better side on the day.
Onto the next stage of this competition, Cup, Plate and Shield. We had a toss of a coin against Reeds, which Reeds won and they went through to the Plate. Camberley were into the Shield and our quarter final match was against Effingham & Leatherhead
Camberley 1 v Effingham & Leatherhead 1.
Another well balanced game, Camberley went a try up in the first half with very good pushing in the maul near to their try line, the ball finally down right in the corner. The second half started with Camberley controlling the game, Effingham were not able to get through. The time was passing by but the game still continued. A penalty to Effingham about 10 metres out, we held them off, but another penalty was awarded to Effingham – about 8 metres out this time. Again very good defending and turnover ball, Camberley tried to move the ball quickly, a lunging tackle by Effingham about 5 metres out, and the ball was dropped, picked up by Effingham and over for a try. The Final whistle was blown. How long was that? The ref then declared last try wins. Work that one out! The players were clearly very upset by this, well done to Effingham.
Very well done to all the squad, today wasn’t going to be our day. Tim and the coaches have some very warm and encouraging words for the players. We shall move on - to the bar did I hear someone say!
