Despite the near monsoon conditions on Tuesday afternoon, all of the pupils enjoyed a superb away fixture. 

The girls matches were a bit further up the road at the Coventry Schools Astro pitches where all 23 Crescent girls taking part played fantastically, getting really stuck in showing fantastic determination, resilience and grit. Pupils were able to have a coaching session with Mrs Dowling as well as take part in a match against Bablake students in which all pupils developed their ball carrying skills, use of space and teamwork. Fantastic attitude and effort from all.

Despite the near monsoon conditions on Tuesday afternoon, both of our U9 rugby sides enjoyed a superb away fixture at Bablake, playing with skill, pace, super handling despite the weather... and above all big smiles on their faces!

Although the matches were more about practice and experience rather than the actual result, remarkably both ended in a thoroughly deserved draw for both sides.

Players of the match were Charlie and Feranmi for the A's for their ferocious defence, and Ben for the B's for his terrific speed and running lines... although the entire squad deserves a huge well done playing their hearts out in true Cresent fashion, with real determination, and not moaning once about the biblical weather!
