Daughters first rugby match!


Recommended Posts

My Daughter played her first under 7's match today for Tenby Swifts.. We were playing our most hated local rivals Narberth, and we beat them 4 tries to 3! :toast: 31st birthdays don't get much better this! :victory:

Unisex Rugby Malt :icon_eek:

Sign of the times Mack mate, anti discrimination laws and all that! :D

It's only 'tag' rugby till they get to the age of 9, non contact.

 

I didn't think that she'd be interested, but she seems to enjoy it. It'll help to keep her fit, and away from the Nintendo DS for a bit anyway! :thumbs:

First time I ever saw that,I didnt even know it went on,I thought it would have been a junior female league :blink:

Not enough girls interested Mack.

 

Anyway, she's half Welsh & half Scottish, she's made of tough stuff! :laugh:

Ah, Superb stuff Mal.

 

How tempted were you to get on there and give Narberth a hammering? :laugh:

 

Bet she got stuck in with the Celtic blood in her :whistling:

 

Must be a great feeling Bud.

 

SS :thumbs:

Very tempted SS mate! :laugh:

 

I really had to control myself on the touchline, thoughts of ref bias against us & the sneaking suspicion that the Narberth coaches were sending on subs without taking any players off, grrr...... :laugh:

 

 

Thank you for the replies everybody! :thumbs:

Not really hated these days Mal, Tenby a good feeder club for the Otters in recent years, thanks!

GRRRRRR...... Narberth don't hate us because we're not a threat these days, but we still hate Narberth! :laugh:

 

:clapper: :clapper:

 

True enough, Tenby went tits up when it went professional. The arseholes on the board at the time nearly bankrupted the club buying cars for everyone, it's never truly recovered.

 

I suppose the Borderers would be Narberths fiercest rivals these days. :thumbs:

No 'these days' about it, ALWAYS.

 

The edge has gone a bit as both teams have players from all over.

When it was 100% local it was fierce.

I went to school in Whitland and you didn't want to show your face if they'd won you.

Boxing Day, had some drinking sessions afterward, wild days. :drink::cheers::chair:

Well, let's just say that the Otters were, and still are public enemy No1 in Tenby! :toast:

 

Mind you, saying that, there's no love lost between with the Scarlets, the Quins, Neyland, Milford, Llangwm, Laugharne, St. Davids, etc, Pembrokeshire rugby's not what it used to be..... :(:thumbs:
