Under 14 Girls Rugby v Rathdrum RFC
Our De La Wes Under 14 Girls travelled to Rathdrum RFC to take part in their next Leinster Division 4 match. Missing several players through injury and illness the girls took to the pitch and as usual committed to working on the skills and tactics they concentrated on in training. Through a number of phases the girls managed to make progress but just lacked the finishing touch to get over the try line and Rathdrum countered very quickly to take advantage of any errors. At half time with another couple of injuries, a training match was agreed with Rathdrum and a much more equal game gave the girls an opportunity to continue to work hard on their skills. A huge thank you to Rathdrum for their hospitality and as usual to our sponsor RWL Advanced Solutions.
With results not going our way so far this season, the girls reminded themselves that the progress that they are making was never going to be quick and that we are all in this for the long run. The ultimate goal being that this squad will be playing in the AIL when they all turn 18.
