U13 Old Brentwoods v Basildon

After all the recent rain it was great to have the sun out for the start of the U13/14 match against Basildon.

The teams were very evenly matched but Old Brentwood started well and thanks to Matt’s powerful drive scored the first try of the match. The match remained tight and some fantastic defending from Keve prevented two potential scores, Keve then went on to score a wonderful individual try to put Old Brentwood 10 – 0 up at half time.

Basildon came out strong in the second half and managed to level the score with two quick tries. The teams continued to battle and again an outstanding piece of defensive work from Keve saved a Basildon score.

With just minutes to go and a draw looking likely, Elliott placed a great cross field kick in the corner for Keve to run on to and score. An excellent 15-10 win for Old Brentwood and a great all round team performance, with a stand out display from Keve.
