Match Report as follows:

Tavistock started brightly from the outset. Early domination by the Tavy pack and effective link up play within the backs gave the travelling support grounds for optimism. Billy Boulton opened the scoring with an excellent element of determined play, powering over to secure the first try. Tiverton responded well, and scored a penalty to close the gap, following a series of Tavy infringements. Tavy were however the dominant side for the remainder of the half but failed to convert their dominance into points. Tiverton, however, seized on some loose Tavy play and ran in a try to take an 8-5 half time lead. Tavy once again started the second half well but unforced errors led to a further Tiverton try. From being the dominant side, Tavy suddenly started to wobble and rue the missed opportunities of the first half, but to their credit, and led by their tenacious captain, Ali Dawe, Tavy opened up the Tiverton defence to permit Monty Burdfield to run in a try which was successfully converted by Ed Longden. Tavy then started to demonstrate genuine belief in their ability and ran in a further try through Monty Burdfield, converted by Ed Longden, Tavy really had their tails up and looked a much better unit with the forwards beginning to dominate the scrum, with Harry Birt and Ash Toll leading the physical challenge. Tiverton soon conceded a penalty as a direct result of the Tavy pressure, and Ed Longden confidently scored from the resulting kick. Tavy desperate for the win then secured a final try during the final phase of play with Ed Longden charging down the ball in the loose and confidently scoring the try to allow Tavistock to secure a well deserved 13-27 Victory.

Man of the match for his commitment in both the tackle and providing genuine options on the wing was Rob Hocking.
