It was a good week for the boys at Wymondham Rugby Club. Two huge matches at Barnard Fields ended in triumph. The first was a Norfolk Cup Semi-Final, which the club won 50-13 against a Norwich team. The Club announced on their Facebook: “Our under-15s put on a dominant display, crushing a strong Norwich side…After an incredible season, the lads can now look forward to the final at The Big Norfolk Weekend!”

The second match was an under-16s “showdown” which came tantalisingly down to the wire. “A packed home crowd watched as our boys in Red & Black took early control with powerful running, relentless defence, and pinpoint kicking,” the Club reported. “But Crusaders came roaring back, scoring unanswered tries and looking set to repeat last year’s final heartbreak.

But Wymondham never gave in.” The team scored a try, tipping the score to 36-35, within seconds of the final whistle. Huge congratulations to the club for their incredible players!
