Latest Match Reports
Newent arrived at Edgeley Park as clear league leaders with a 100 per cent record and it was hard not to see why in this hard fought, but never close, battle. The slick hands of their speedy backs created a try within eight minutes to put them ahead but the Shropshire men fought back and forced a penalty a few minutes later.
Whitchurch welcomed Cheltenham for their first ever fixture against the club and it was the visitors who took early control with a converted try in the first 5 minutes. The home team then started to apply pressure and were awarded a penalty in front of the posts 5 minutes later…
Another tough away game for the Whitchurch team who seem to be getting better and better by the game. The pitch was in good condition considering the amount of rain we have had, and a nice sunny afternoon saw Whitchurch take the early lead.
Whitchurch began this game hoping to continue their visible improvement under coach Andy Powell. The visitors started brightly but it was the red shirts that scored first when the returning Ben Vailings made a great break and released Jake Dodwell to score th opening try.
Another long journey for the Whitchurch team down to Malvern. This week the Shropshire side saw 4 young debutants for the 1st team, Harrison Vernon, Leo Whittaker, Andy Davies, and Matt Slark adding to Max Clarke and Tom Emmerson in their second competitive first team game.
This was a vital game for both teams as they were both looking for the first win of the season. It had the extra incentive for the home team to get one over on their past coach Scott Sturdy.
The game started in perfect conditions with the sun shining and the home team were the first to apply pressure on the opposition spending the first few minutes camped in the Hereford half.
