Form 1 Rugby Blitz

Form 1 Rugby Blitz

The 1st form had the their rescheduled blitz on at Musgrave Park on 13th January and were delighted to take to the pitch for the first time. We had 5 matches on the day with every game lasting 10 minutes, our first match of the day was against Patrician Academy A from Mallow and lost the game narrowly 10-5 with them scoring the try the last play of the game. We played our second game against against Midleton CBS A and lost the game 15-5. Onto our 3rd game and with 3 games in a row with no break we needed to make a few subs and to keep them rolling, we played against Patrician Academy B and drew the game 20-20 which was great to see our attacking threat come out, our 4th game was against Midleton CBS B and lost the game 15-5. The final game of the day was against Colaiste Spioraid Naoimh and we were starting to get tried from the back to back games with us losing 15-5 again. I would like to thank the students for their first day out and we look forward to playing against Glenstal Abbey in a full match next week at home. The try scorers on the day were Hugh Cussen with 3 tries, Rory McEnery with 2 tries, Jacob Sheane with 1 try, Josh Dorgan with 1 try and Harry Robertson with 1 try. Thanks to Mr. Aherne, Mr. Jimenez and Mr. Dettloff for going on the day.
