Blackburn v Rossendale U8s

Blackburn v Rossendale - U8s

A short trip in the Autumn Sunshine saw Rossendale travel up the A56 to face Blackburn.

Blackburn had a healthy squad of two teams with a few subs - Rossendale split into two teams to face the opposition, swapping over to play the other squad after 2 half’s of 10min.

Round 1
George, Henry, Rory, Tom - Rossendale won 6-5
Alfie, Ethan, Freddie, Ollie, Theo - Rossendale won 9-8

Round 2
Alfie, George, Henry, Rory, Tom - Blackburn won 7-5
Ethan, Freddie, Ollie, Theo - Blackburn won 8-5

Both teams displayed some great ball skills along with some fantastic running into space which really helped to pierce through the Blackburn defence.

Tags were hunted down and torn off at regular intervals breaking up attacks - and at times some quick hands lead to in all some great flowing mini rugby on offer for the crowd!

Well done everyone - Chris and I are very impressed with the progress so far keep up the good work!
