The U10s As opening fixture of 2008 proved to be quite challenging and caught them out on the backfoot against strong opposition during the first match. However they made amends in the second and got back into their stride. Overall good support came from Ollie Bowles and Connor Eastgate, who scored Aylesbury’s try in the third match.

Aylesbury Bs stormed their way through the first match, with skipper Charles Plowman scoring the first two tries, followed by Freddie May and Jamie Ludlow with two tries apiece. Leigh Ingram put in some immense tackling and the scrum, which consisted of Theo Schofield, Freddie May and James Rickard  (coaches’ award winner) showed real controlled aggression.
During the second match, the Bs continued to show excellent teamwork, with tries being scored by Jamie Ludlow (two), Oli Chaplin (one) and James Rickard (four). The forwards put on good pressure and intelligent ball-passing meant that the game went totally in Aylesbury’s favour. A good break by Bicester brought about their only try.
A strengthened Bicester side in the third match proved more challenging but Aylesbury stood their ground with Oli Chaplin scoring a consolation try.
Overall a spirited and excellent display of rugby.
