Sunday 22 February 2009 - training and festival

Today the squad was split between training at home and a mini festival at Redingensians.

Training continued with the basics of the tackle, which was an initial introduction for some of our players. Touch rugby was also played, with some good play being shown.

At the festival, there were two other visiting teams. We won one game but did lose the others. This does not necessarily reflect on how we played, as we did show some good play and it was a close call on at least one of those games we did not win. In particular we held our line and passed well. We do, however, need to be more consistent in this and be more aggressive in our defence to win more games. One thing that was noticeable, on those odd occasions that our players did go to ground after being tagged, they were automatically rolling away from the ball and pushing it backwards - a good indicator for next season!

Next week we are at home with Petersfield visiting.
