Machen RFC was founded in 1871 just 4 years after Wasps FC. Their tradition & heritage showed as they gave a great game & welcome to our U16s

Fantastic team work and a marked improvement on the first match. Some amazing defence from Will Newall great tries for Arthur Morgan and George Dzavaryan with conversion and penalty from Simeon Aldridge.

This was a great comeback in the second half to get to within two points, but the clock ran out....

Strengths: cohesion and creativity.
Things to work on: execution.

Clearly with a mixed squad there were more errors that would be expected for a team that has played together all year, but the strength of this group of players is that the skill level overall is high and the players wanted to try new things.

It was a scoreline loss, but not considered a major loss. Well done to all the boys who turned out for Wasps.. you did us proud, represented the club (and country) with pride and showed the Welsh a thing or two about how we play heads up rugby.
... from a proud coach ...

Many thanks to Machen RFC for their extremely warm Welcome on & off the Pitch
