This weekend saw the first games for the Onedrywash sponsored Doncaster Knights under 10s, and what a start - 2 good wins and a draw which with a bit more luck could have been a win too.
The boys headed to Driffield and played against teams from Driffield, Pocklington and a mixed opposition, and despite the pouring rain, they stuck to their task and played some great rugby. There were try scorers throughout the team, and some great defensive efforts, and most importantly some great support from the parents.
Special mention to vice captain Conor who had the task of captaining the side for part of one game, and really rose to the challenge, to James, Liam, Lewi and Frazer who worked tirelessly in the forwards to give Owain and BJ plenty of ball to work the back with, and to Thomas who ran all day for the cause.
At the same time as the team was playing, Team Jo was running her first half marathon to raise money for the team - Brian followed round the course on his bike to keep Jo motivated, and Andrea, Lauren and Harriet shouted on from the sidelines. Despite the awful conditions, Jo finished in just over 2 hours raising over £300 for the team - well done and thanks Jo !!
Before and after the race !!
