The football comp started yesterday and our Under 12s team played two games against Young, who have so many players they can field two teams. The competition is fiercer this year and the boys certainly felt the hard tackles and the seriousness of the Young teams. We're playing on the full-size field this year, with 13 aside.
The first game we won 24-4, but during the first half there was very little in it. We were up 6-0 at half time. Game two we won convincingly 36-0, but the score doesn't reflect the type of play. We defended well, and managed to make a few good breaks to score. A great start to the season.
I scored both games, then spent an hour in the canteen so the ladies could have a break. Then I spent the afternoon washing the jumpers, and I always love how they look on the clothes line. I got in early with the jumpers: better a dry day when they're not covered with mud.
