Kent 7s Plate Runners Up |
|
An excellent end to the season as
Maidstone Under 14's worked hard to get through to the Final of the Plate
Competition at the Sevens Tournament in Ashford. Maidstone had five matches
in the Pool to start (most teams only had four matches at this stage), which
was very competitive right to the last match to see who was going through to
the Cup / the Plate / or going home. Maidstone came 4th in the Pool, and
then won their quarter final and semi final, to gain a place in the Final
against Canterbury.
Eight matches on hard ground,
with all matches played at a fast pace, eventually caught up with Maidstone,
as Canterbury managed to run in a try in each half.
Maidstone players were rewarded
with individual medals and a Runners up Plate.
Well done, to everyone in the
squad - not just the twelve players who played on the day, but also those
who turned up for training on Thursday and Saturday.
Note we drew with Folkestone in
the Pool game, but they eventually played in the Cup Final!!!!
