Acorns U7s and U8s Match Report

Coach Matt and Coach Vikki dovetailed well with the U7s and that cohort’s game play and understanding is came on leaps and bounds as a result.

Although Upminster only brought one U8s side, Coach Barry kept the Acorns U8s rotated side involved, educated and entertained during their alternate 10 min rests!

The Acorns U8s group came up against a robust and well-drilled Upminster team but, after coming off very much second best in the early exchanges, they lived up to Joseff Rees’ pre-match mantra, “Never Give Up”, and grew into their matches as the session progressed. They demonstrated greater tenacity in defence and better appreciation of space in attack.

One solo, try scoring effort by Thomas Nunn was particularly spectacular and memorable ?
