It was a very cold start to the day, but by the afternoon the morning’s frost had gone for a great afternoon of rugby.  The two sides were fairly evenly matched on the day, but Leicestershire demonstrated a little more grit and better executed their chances.

Hosted by Melton Mowbray RFC, after four tries to two, plus one conversion, the final score was 24-10 to Leicestershire.

Players representing the County yesterday came from a variety of clubs (Market Harborough, Vipers, Loughborough, Syston, Leicester Forest, Oadby Wyggestonians and Lutterworth) aswell as players from the Tigers Player Development Group.

We look forward to seeing more from these boys at their next match against Staffordshire at Lichfield RFC  on 5th February KO 1:00pm. Good luck!
