Presidents XV 44 : Chairmans XV 5


A large crowd assembled for the annual Boxing Day Memorial match at Sandy Park. Despite the scoreline, the two teams produced a fine open game of rugby which was much enjoyed by the spectators.

The President's team, captained by Matt Cole, contained a number of former Tavistock players returning for the Xmas holidays and they generally had a bit more pace around the park than the Chairman's team.

Simon Bawden dotted down the first try for the victors and although this was matched soon after by a try from Tim Childs for the Chairman's side, further tries by Gareth Mason and Alex Hudson gave the President's men the lead at half time. The President's team scored further tries from Lawrence Evans; Jim Dunsford; Duncan Law; Hayden Biddle and a second from Gareth Mason but, despite periods of pressure, the Chairman's team failed to get over the whitewash again. The President's team brought on veterans Stan Staniland; Chris Greatrex and Colin Abel among the numerous substitutions made by both sides during the match, but referee Brian Barclay remained vigilant, to ensure good order was maintained.

There was a lengthy post-match discussion in the club bar after the game !!!
