Well, what a tremendous day for the Westcombe Park Tigers at the Old Beccehamians festival!.
Both teams won 8 out of the 10 games we played, with Team one winning all 5! Team 2 started with a narrow loss in the first game, with a try by Sidcup in the dying seconds to gain them a 5-4 win.
The pace of games was fast and Team 2 managed to hold Old Dartfordians to a 5-5 draw in the second game. This was followed by 3 more rapid fire games that Westcombe won through a combination of skills from Charlie, Sam, Kyle, Harrison and Noah. Sam even scored a try with one boot and a sock!
Team 1 were exemplary beating all 5 of their opponents Sidcup, Old Dartfordians, Beccehamians, Maidstone and Old Colfieans with scores of 6-3, 6-4, 6-3, 8-3 and an hard fought final match against Old Colfeainas which ended in 8-6. Fantastic play from all 6 of Toby, Daniel, Matthew, Max, Archie and Aiden despite being pretty tired by the time they got to match 5. A motivational pep talk from Steve Chick did the job and fired up the boys to a well-deserved win which required concentration and commitmemnt.
An excellent day all round and one for which the Tigers should be proud.
