NLD U18Ws vs East Midlands U18Ws

Our U18s kicked off their first NLD game of the 2024-25 season with a trip down to Peterborough to face East Midlands…

The girls came out strong, with our vice-captain J. Burlinson crossing the line for the opening try after just 12 minutes!

East Midlands responded with four tries, including a final one just before halftime and O. Cepelak found space in the dying moments of the first half to score another for NLD, keeping us in the fight.

In the second half, East Midlands added three more tries, converting one. Despite their momentum, our O. Cepelak powered over the line to add another try to the scoreboard for NLD. Final score: 44-15.
