Hull Ladies vs Mellish Ladies

Hull 17 - Mellish 12

This Sunday it was Hull Ladies first warm up match before our season begins on the 17th September, and with a big crowd to cheer us on, the afternoon did not disappoint.

There were some hard hits flying in from our back row, and some superb running from our full back, which lead to  two early tries and a conversion, Hull ladies took the lead in the first twenty minutes  (12-0).
The second quarter belonged to Mellish, where some strong running from their pack put 12 points on the board and brought them back into contention.
And after a stalemate of a third quarter, the fitness of Hull ladies finally showed through, and another running try from our full back gave us the game.

This first pre-season match showed how far our fitness has come, and gave everyone the chance to try out new positions. At points the play was messy, but now the team has cleared away the cobwebs and some of the nerves … its only going to get better from here!
