Shaky start to first game of rugby season
Glenwood's 2nd rugby team proved too strong for George Campbell in a tough encounter on Friday.
THE Glenwood High School Invitational B rugby team played George Campbell 2nd XV at the Port Natal Night Series on Friday.
One could clearly see that this was the first game of what is to be a long rugby season, with unforced errors being a dominant feature.
Both teams took some time to get into any sort of rhythm. Glenwood’s first points came from a penalty in the first half, which was converted.
That is how it stayed until the half time break with Glenwood leading 3 – 0.
The second half was somewhat better than the first. Fifteen minutes into the half, a lovely counter-attack along the left hand touch saw some good interplay between the forwards and the backs. The move ended with a try being scored in the corner. The conversion was however, missed.
With four minutes left in the game Glenwood managed to score its second try, once again though the conversion was missed. The total was 13–0 until the final whistle blew.
