Fancy that! Girls ready to pitch in

Spalding Rugby Club have introduced non-contact and contact rugby for girls aged 12-18.

The new venture was launched with a fancy dress party at the clubhouse.
Training is at the club’s home ground at Centenary Park, PE12 6AF, every Tuesday 6.30-8pm and Sunday 10.30am-noon.
☐ Neither Spalding’s first team nor the 1923s had a game at the weekend so focus switched to the Colts, who drew in a crowd of supporters for a Friday night match under floodlights against Stamford. They delivered a comprehensive victory with five tries in a 33-0 success.
Captained by Ollie Despicht, Spalding dominated the early possession and the opening try came when Justin Coman powered his way over the line for a score converted by Despicht
Further tries from I Bowman and D Johnson extended their lead to 21-0 at the break, with Despicht converting both.
Spalding maintained their intensity and attacking intent in the second half adding two further tries by S Start, both converted by Despicht, who also went over the try line himself.
This Saturday, the first team are at Newark, 2.15pm, while the 1923s are also their travels, taking on Notts Moderns Seconds.
