Youth Rugby Round Up
2nd May 2010
 

Harlow Colts   13  Upper Clapton Colts    28.

In this fiercely contested local derby it was the visitors who won getting their revenge on Harlow who had beaten them earlier in the season.

Clapton had the edge over the home side in the set pieces and also won good turnover ball throughout. It was the visitors who broke through to score    two tries both converted before half  time . The Young Rams responded with two penalties from the  boot of Danny Smith.

Harlow played well for the first part of the second half and forcing their way into the  Clapton twenty two  attacked in the middle , the ball was finally  given to  centre Kieron  Gleeson who crashed over . Smith made another successful kick and  hope flickered briefly for Harlow. But it was Clapton  who took control in  the dying minutes. As Harlow pressed forward they were exposed to the Clapton wingers and the visitors scored two more tries to win a hard fought battle.

Harlow Colts: Lewis (Capt), Alderman, Scanlon, Drake, Ansell, Ellis, Heeney, Potter, Smith, Gregory, Dickerson, Palmer, Heaton, Coleman, Cable, Gleeson.

 

Harlow Under 17s Tour to Cornwall.

The Harlow under17s found themselves outgunned when they lined up to play their hosts, Penryn in Cornwall.

The Young Rams found themselves playing against the Penryn colts side who had reached the National Colts Cup final .

The Young Rams are to be praised for the spirit they showed in keeping their hosts at 0-0 for the first twenty minutes. Penryn then stepped up the pace and ran in five tries before half time, Harlow scoring with a long range penalty. More tries followed as the Young Rams began to tire.

The final score was a reflection of the abilities and strengths of both sides but after the game the Young Ram outsung their hosts.
