Stroud were drawn in a very strong pool at the Dursley festival, the team was going to have to play at their very best all the way through to stand a chance of progressing into the final.
Stroud played some excellent rugby throughout with some great running and passing producing some excellent tries. For the most part the defence was strong too but a couple of lapses in concentration let the opposition through to score.
Overall however the Stroud team played some great rugby and on another day may well have came out on top.
The main thing, however, was that the whole team enjoyed the day. The Dursley festival is always a great festival, well organised and with a good atmosphetre.
Thanks to all at Dursley RFC for their hard work.
Squad List: James Jones, Joel Finch, Chaka Thomlyn-Hayes, Kit Thomas, Kane Snell, Lewis McDowall, James Mitchell, Conor Beard, Niall McLauchlin, Freddie Polley, Matt Oliver, Iwain Rositter, Jacob Archer
