Ormskirk RUFC

Another glorious spring morning welcomed Blackburn at

The first game was fast and furious with excellent play from both sides, however, all our drill work and training had paid off, we were by far the stronger side and won easily 7 – 2. 

With a quick change of players we began the next match full of determination, but let our guard down a little, and made some careless mistakes as Blackburn began to dominate. Our gang put their heads down and clawed back chances to draw 7 all. 

Luckily Blackburn agreed to stay for a final round which saw Ormskirk attack and defend with flair and resulted in a 4 – 2 win to our chaps. 

Player of the Week and Man of the Match went to Alex ‘Side Step’ Lang.
