HINCKLEY BULLDOZE BURTON
Hinckley's large squad travelled to Burton, playing four games of Rugby
A Sunny Remembrance Sunday morning, saw Hinckley Under 11's play four games of Rugby against Burton's slightly smaller squad. Hinckley and Burton both fielded mixed ability teams in order to produce some tight competitive Rugby. Unfortunately Hinckley was the much stronger side and comfortably ran in 38 try's to Burtons 7. Although the games were very one sided the Hinckley teams produced some exiting free flowing Rugby, converting nearly every attack into a try. They were also solid in the defence. Thanks to the Hinckley players who donned a Burton shirt to make up the numbers to allow for 4 games to be played.
Game 1 Hinckley 11 - 3 Burton
Try scorers :- Moore (3), Ellershaw (3), Salisbury (2), Goodwin, Whittingham.L & Hutton.
Game 2 Hinckley 5 - 3 Burton
Try scorers :- Hurley-Smith (2), Duggins, Barnes & Fray
Game 3 Hinckley 12 - 0 Burton
Try scorers :- Moore (4), Drakeford (3), Salisbury (2), Whittingham.L (2), Morrissey
Game 4 Hinckley 10 - 1
Try scorers :- Burton (4), Whittingham.A (2), Mensforth-Grove (2), Barnes (2).
An excellent mornings Rugby from the Hinckley squad, some good performances from the newer members, the coaching team should be proud.
