The Enfield Tigers U16s and U14s teams recorded respective 36-24 and 27-22 away wins against Datchworth and Hertford ‘cluster’ sides in Hertfordshire.

Regarding the U16s game, our special correspondent, Charlie Baxter, informs us that the visitors made their greater pace out wide, and in the mid-field count, and particularly so in the first-half to record their first league win.

Consequently, Emily C opened the scoring (converted by Rosie J), with Victoria E and Victoria C also crossing, before Aliya followed suit, crowning a special moment with a debut try as the visitors capitalised on their good start.

The combined Datchworth-Hertford team did engineer a try of their own, and their stronger pack enabled them to erode the Tigers’ lead in the second-half, having outscored the visitors 3-2 on the try count.

The Tigers registered their five pointers via Rosie J and Pretty. Rosie J signed off with three conversions in all, but ultimately most of the damage had been done in the first-half.
