Prep Sports Report

The Prep boys were straight back into action after the break with matches at Hazlegrove. The U10As enjoyed an entertaining match in which all the boys contributed really well to a good team performance. The U10/11Bs played well in the first half and went two goals up, however, they ran out of steam towards the end and got pipped in the last quarter. Meanwhile the U11As felt the effects of half term and put in a very rusty performance against well drilled opposition.
