Dumfries Mini Rugby Tournament (Sunday 15th March)

 

 

Dumfries Saints P4’s fielded 2 teams in our home fixture. Saints Black & Whites and Saints Blues. B&W’s had their 1st match v Ayr and were sound winners 6-1, with Alec Bryden and the ever improving Riley Black on the scoreboard. Next up was Dalziel (from Motherwell) and another super result for the boys and mention to Joe Graham (everyone knows that yellow scrum cap!) and Fergus Hannah’s involvement, with a 4-1 win. Last match in the pool was Stewartry and B&W’s also ran in winners at 3-1. Oliver Clanachan, Callum McLaughlan and Innes Magee, in the action as always. These level headed youngsters were well up for the final with Moffat who also played straight through to final. What a final it was…..as the tackles, ball handling and general control from The P4’s was superb to watch, with scores from George Willis-Fleming, Callum Howat and Ethan Anderson, securing a home result (3-1) and the trophy returning back to Park Farm. Also, a superb day for Callum Hinton, who was The much deserved P4 player of the Tournament, as his work rate was fantastic and his tackling secure. The Blues, also had a great day playing on pitch 2, against Stewartry, Moffat, Ayr and Dalziel. This team is making huge progress and congratulations must go to all these young players, P4 Saints have 27 players registered and normally field 2 teams, so competition is healthy and numbers good for the future of this squad. Thank you to Dave Bell for running the Blues and our 2 refs – Mike Halliday and Bast Willis-Fleming.
