Meet at 15:45 in full blue home kit. Blue shirt, Blue shorts and red socks. Henry Cort School Try not to drink too much during the rugby!
From Fareham
When you arrive please use the car park on the left hand side outside of the school gates.
Please then enter the school and follow the signs to the changing facilities (we are using the school changing) and the pitch. Please note there is no permitted access to/from the facilities via the road adjacent to the school, which runs past the cottages of local residents.
Our clubhouse is adjacent to the pitch and refreshments will be served post match. We will assume your full team will be staying for teas, so you only need to contact me if this is not the case or if there is someone who has a specific dietary requirement. Please give as much notice as possible, preferably by 5pm on Thursday.
To maintain the ambience within the club and to comply with fire regulations there is limited space for the storage of kitbags. We therefore request that our own members, visiting teams and officials take their bags back to their cars wherever possible before coming in to enjoy our post match hospitality.
Fareham 8’s 0-3 US Men’s 2’s
After the shock result of US 2nds losing to the otters of Southampton and having a week to regroup and take stock.
US had a point to prove and needed to keep pressure on Portsmouth at the top of the league
So on a rain soaked and windy late afternoon game at Fareham US came with a strong side with lots of depth in almost every position
Right from the start US came at a fareham like a juggernaut and very early in the 1st half broke the deadlock with a short corner routine that ended up in the back of net with Mike being in the right place at the right time at the fat post
It was all US throughout the first half and all their pressure payed off with 2 other goals coming via short corners with Tom slotting then home
Half time whistle was blown and US had a healthy lead and looked to carry on from where they left off and looked to build on that lead but due to some lack lustre finishing and some slips in the final third it stayed 3-0 and US closed the gap on Portsmouth it was a great performance by everyone
