u8s vs Tondu & Maesteg Celtic

“Pass the ball before you are tagged” was the order of the day by Coach Balmer to every pair of listening ears as the Under 8 Bridgend Sports went out to play. Listen they did and all 16 players passed, switched and ran with the ball in hand in a slippery encounter in rough wet conditions.
The progression was shown by the Eynon twins and this led to both Holly scoring one try and tagging 1, whilst her brother Aaron scored 2 tries and tagging 1. Myah Barnard supported in the middle whilst Mikey Heanue defended with 5 lovely tags. Tries came thick and fast when Ollie Balmer stepped on the pitch straight from his football game and he scored 4 tries. A lovely try from Sam Boughton this morning. Ellis Kendall played well today to score 6 tries and 5 tags. Great play Ellis ! Aled Rees one of the players of the week had another blinding all round game with the highest tag count of 19 and he also ran in 9 tries. Rhydian Cronin positioned himself well today on the wing, he defended well to tag 9 tags and ran in from deep to score 5 tries. Impressive running from top try scorer Archie Hall with 10 tries and some good defence with 15 tags.
Another great performer was Gethin Roberts who scored 5 lovely tries and 6 great tags. Gethin’s running and swerving linked in with Tomos Richards on the opposite wing who also impressed the coaches today to score 1 try and 4 tags. Well played boys ! A sturdy performance from Charlie Hearing this week with 4 tries and 5 great tags in wet conditions. Not showing any signs of slippery fingers was Matthew Griffiths who is consistent in his defence. 16 tags one after the other thwart the impending attack. Mat also scored 2 lovely tries. In a very busy game Leo D’Adamo showed his worth by defending well with 7 great tags and scoring 4 lovely tries in some thrilling rugby. Another consistent turn out from Oscar Gee, who seems to make something impressive from deep. Oscar not only tagged a superb 10 tags but he also ran in 8 great tries. Another all round game from Oscar.
Well done to all of the players and coaches for another enjoyable morning of mini rugby
