Results

S1/S2 Montrose - 6 (tries) / Strathmore Schools S1/S2 - 1(try)

A heartening display by the young Strathmore team saw them lose to a more powerful Montrose side this evening at Union Park. By all accounts both teams attempted to put on a good attacking game of rugby with the home side making the most of their opportunities. James Sorrie scored out wide in a well worked try for the away team and coach Mr Baldie is confident that the result will be turned over in the return match at Strathmore RFC (T.B.C)

Montrose U18's - 15 / Strathmore Schools U18's - 22


In what proved to be a very difficult and scrappy encounter the newly formed Strathmore Schools under 18 side narrowly beat of the challenge of the more experienced home side. Scores from Craig Thomson, David Ferguson, Calum Maclean, and Matt Allen showed that even in a match largely dominated by forward play, as soon as the team get an attacking chance the back line can finish the moves. This was helped hugely by the makeshift forward pack who fought hard all day and took the game to their opponents.

The re-run of this fixture is set for Wednesday 24th October at Strathmore RFC with the game due to kick off at 5pm. Come on down and support the teams as they look to build on the already positive start to the season.

Mr C.
