Match week 1. 7/8 Sept

Weekly Round Up.

We kicked off our National League 2 campaign on Saturday welcoming Stewart Melville to Horne Park.

Despite a bright start with tries from Calum Rennie (sponsored by Retson's Barber Shop) and Alan Connolly, it was tight at the break with Falkirk leading 13-11.

Stew Mel hit back early in the second half with 2 tries & a penalty taking a 13-24 lead into the final 20 minutes.

A yellow card to Connor Faulds seemed to energize Falkirk for a fight back but time wasn’t on their side. Despite a try from John McKenna (sponsored by CR Garden Services) and a penalty the final score was 21-24.

The Behind the wall sponsored man of the match was fly half Duncan Tompkins (sponsored by The Groundhogs)

Thanks to Match sponsor Sika and thanks to Finn Russell for taking the time out of his RWC prep to chat and sign the ball boys shirts.

Elsewhere Kelpies Rugby travelled to Glenrothes (boys) and Howe festival (girls) with teams playing well across the age grades. Highlight of the results was the U14 girls with a clean sweep of 3 wins from 3.
