SUPER CUP 2015 - POOL” E”
22 FEBRUARY 2015
On a blustery Sunday afternoon at Brookfield Drive, Pwllheli ladies took on Colwyn Bay ladies who recently thrashed Welshpool ladies 77-0 in the same competition, and held them to an 18 – 5 score.
The weather did not help either team but Colwyn Bay failed to take advantage of the wind in the first half but the Llyn girls worked hard and defended stoutly despite being one girl short during most of the game due to injury/illness.
Lowri Hughes the Pwllheli scrum half, after half a dozen attempts, found space and outpaced the home defence on an ark on 30 minutes to score a try wide out. The conversion attempt by Elliw Williams was gusted wide of the mark by the strong wind.
Colwyn Bay’r Amy Evans forced her way through the visitors’ defence and over the try line for a 5 – 5 score at half time.
Colwyn Bay, playing against the wind, were more determined in the second half and kept their players fresh with substitutioins. With only for minutes gone, forward Ellen Jones crossed for a try and twenty minutes later when Pwllheli were penalised for a ruck offence,
The home team fly half was successful with a penalty kick.
With five minutes to go, Colwyn Bay’s left wing and ‘maid of the match Emma Parry scored an excellent try after outpacing the Pwllheli defenders from the half way line.
An excellent second match for Genod Pwllheli who are desperate for more players to have a full squad and substitutes, and who showed a resolute winning attitude by almost scoring a second try a few minutes before final whistle when Rachael Beth was brought down ten metres from the try line having side stepped her way in mid field through the home team forwards and Nia Medi unfortunate not to pick up the spoils and drive over the line.
Better luck against Abergele at Bodegroes nest Sunday afternoon (1st March).
Team : Rachael Williams, Julie Griffiths, Nicola Griffiths, Amy Evans, Elliw Williams,Lowri Hughes. Sian Roberts, Sioned Owen, Gwenllian Roberts, Eleri Williams, Nina Fischer, Nia Medi Williams.
