Hinckley Under 12's got their County Cup campaign off to a great start with an impressive win over the hosts, the Hinckley forward pack quickly dominated the Melton pack with an awesome display of scrummaging, rucking and mauling, and with Ellershaw's excellent display at scrum half allowed the backs to run riot, first across the white wash with an excellent brace of tries was Long, who showed some excellent determination, another strong scrum from the forward pack set up Webb to score Hinckley's third and end the half Hinckley 15pts Melton 0pts. The second half continued with Hinckley dominating in all areas of the pitch, and when Nixon and Sharkey showed some excellent hand speed released Long for his third of the match, a powerful run from Smith set up Wass for a well earned score and Hinckley's fifth, before Sharkey rounded of an excellent performance to end the match Hinckley 30pts Melton 0pts.
