On Sunday 17th May Fordingbridge ladies played their last tournament of the season as part of the Hampshire Women’s Touch Rugby Series. Knowing that we had already won overall we were looking forward to a nice relaxing day… But Badger had other ideas. I think that the threat of punishment was enough to make us all want to give 100% and go out with a bang, especially considering the fact that we were hosting!

Games ended as follows:

Fareham 4-0 victory

Farnborough 1-0 victory

Andover 0-0 draw

US Portsmouth 2-1 victory

Tries came from Sarah Gorman, Kerri Bechter, Emily Squires, Luci Williams, and Frankie Affleck… I think! We put on an epic event which had lead to some temporary memory loss! One thing I do know for sure – everyone had an incredible day! It was a pleasure to be visited by the Hampshire RFU President, Ian Kerr, who enjoyed watching the afternoon and presented the awards for the winners and runner’s up of the Series.

Fordingbridge ladies were overall winners for the day, and for the entire season, with the runner’s up being Andover. It’s been hard work but greatly rewarding, and fantastic to see a new team member getting hooked so late on - Emma has the bug for sure!
Thanks to everyone who has put in so much over the year, from players, to our glorious coach, all the other teams for such great banter, and all the supporters who have stood in rain and shine to watch us do what we love. And most of all, thank you to Kieran Spencer who has worked hard to organise the series. Roll on September!
