Launceston 45 : Tavistock 20

Launceston 25 : Tavistock 40


GAME 1
Having suffered an enforced break from matches and training since Mid November, Tavistock U8s finally got back on the pitch at Launceston on Sunday. A rusty start to the new year ensued with Launceston's strong support in attack causing Tavistock to fight some desperate battles to keep Launceston's attacks at bay. Tavistock took a while to find their feet but their attacking play started to take shape with some superb passages of play in the second half, moving the ball across the field stretching the disciplined Launceston defence to its limits in an attempt to find a way through. Some excellent teamwork and passing lead to tries from Noah Berridge(2) , Henry Varndell -Dawes down the left and Harry Edwards from the right, The two teams seemed fairly evenly matched but a series of simple errors land lapses in concentration letting Tavi down at the last minute allowing the home side to capitalise

GAME 2
A second match saw Tavistock step up the pace with more of the same intelligent use of width in both attack and defence. The tavistock attack were much more successful at creating the gaps and exploiting them to the full. Little Jame Kenyon showing great stamina's in coming back from a hard knock in the first game to score two superb solo efforts straight from starts and providing some probing runs to create opportunities for several of the tavi tries in this game. A much more determined defence from Tavi kept the home score down this time and once again the attacking play saw some great interplay between centres and wingers to run in from James White(2) Harry Edwards, Louis Peake, Noah Berridge, Henry Varndell- Dawes and a well deserved try for defensive rock Harry Richardson.
