Matson 29 Berry Hill 12

With players out on county duty Hill travelled to Matson with a a bare squad but this didn't deter them from opening up the scoring with a great run from Ricky Davies.Sam Hughes then broke through to increase the led before Matson started to hit back to level the score at 12 piece . Hill however could have been a head again with a strong diagonal run from Billy Roberts but Matson made a great defensive tackle a few feet from the line causing the ball to be spilt forward. After the restart for the second half it was the home team who were now more dominant in the scrums and line outs putting Hill under pressure and they soon took the lead with 2 more tries. Hill did show determination and started to come back into the game towards the final quarter but were unlucky to concede again with a break away in the last play.

Monmouth Festival

Berry Hill 18 Abergavenny 8 Berry Hill 14 Dowlais 5
Berry Hill 12 Monmouth 5

Berry Hill won all their 3 games to lift the U16 trophy at the Monmouth Junior Festival. The first game against Abergavenny set the tone for the afternoon with strong pressure from the forwards allowing Will Lewis to touch down between the posts and Billy Roberts to take a great pick up nearly off his boot to seal the match. Dowlais were the second opponents, Hill again looked strong and seized on mistakes to put them ahead with the kicking of Ryan Dawson. The final game against Monmouth was the closest with the home team sticking to their game plan and putting Hill under pressure. Hill scored first with Matty Office who was in outstanding form touching down. After the break Monmouth levelled the score and so it was game on to the final whistle. Hill however were not going to let things slip through their fingers and upped their game to put Matty over for the second time.



Hill player of the tournament was awarded to Matty Office
