Angry Scotsman saves the day

Men’s 5s came away from Hallam 7s with a 1-1 draw, that could have been worse but should have been better. With Hedgie absent due to a forward roll-related injury, the 5s were forced to rethink their midfield diamond and their DoD strategy. The Abbeydale astro hadn’t been watered, and the ball bounced around all over the place, making our simple passing game impossible. And Hallam 7s have been riding high near the top of Read more…

A trip to the seaside can make a huge difference

The 3s travelled to Scarborough in high spirits and with a realistic sense of optimism. Considering the 9-1 reverse score line and a couple of key players missing this shows just how far we have come as a team this season. Following a 6-1 win on Saturday they started the game brightly. The press was set high and the front line worked well forcing the Scarborough back line to sit deep and keep possession well Read more…
