Under 8's:


In the U8's we play non-contact TAG Rugby. Although in the latter part of the season we will be teaching contact tackling in our training sessions to prepare for next season as the U9's. However, we will be putting great emphasis on keeping this season both enjoyable and fun for players and spectators alike.

Match report U8s v Towcestrians 23//01/11

 

Match 1 Dunstable 7 Towcester 10

Reece Brandon did some great tagging and we were very impressed by the try he scored in the second half. The team were great and Harry Brackenridge's tagging was so fast I lost count on how many he got.

Match 2 Dunstable 4 Towchester 7

Towchester 2nd team have got some fast players but the tagging from Alice Murphy and Harry Bird was great. We really picked it up with our defending to get a turn over. Great work.

Match 3 Dunstable 5 Towchester 6

This match was great to watch. Our defending against a team with much fresher legs was great. Josh Hammond had some great runs and his pass to Ben Carroll who scored a try was flawless. What a run from Alice Murphy who passed to Alfie Herman to score a try.

The coaches and I could not be more pleased with how you have gelled as a team keep up the good work.

Match report U8s v Rushden 16/01/11

 

Although results were not in our favour, the Dunstablians U8’s played some great tag rugby at Rushden last weekend.

In form Alfie Herman played in all three matches and went over 5 times. In the first match there was some great defending by Nathan Charters and Alexander Leer and at the other end an outstanding run and try by Ben Carroll.

Throughout the three games the Dees showed great effort with good tagging from Nathan Sharpe and Robbie George. Superb passing from Reece Brandon allowed Ben Carroll to score, but both Ben and Alice Murphy had to be replaced through injury.

Match report U8s v Olney 09/01/11

 

Match 1 - DUNSTABLE 7 - OLNEY 2

Reece Alex Robbie and Alice did some great tagging and passing which supported the team to score trys. The team have realy jelled together and it's great to start a new year on a high.

Match 2 - DUNSTABLE 6 - OLNEY 4

What a match! The kids looked like they were putting everything they had in to it. Alfie had a great run so close to being tagged but avoided them all. Reece needs to keep his head and place ball down as he was so close a few times but just lost out on some trys.

Match3 - DUNSTABLE 2 - OLNEY 8

Don't be down you worked hard against a less tired team. Could not be more happy with the hard work keep it up.

The boys and girl are doing so well me and coaches are so proud of how the team is gelling together.

 

In first match Robbie and Alfie got trys; match 2 Reece got 2 and Ben 1 ty; match 3 Charlie, Alfie and Nathan got one try each.

 

The tagging done by all the rest was great.

 

Keep up the good work.
