CLYDEBANK RFC TITANS

40^th SEASON 2007 - 08

31st August 2008

CLYDEBANK 12 - Paisley 7

Report by Gordon McCombe

The U16 squad started their campaign against a Paisley team they had yet to beat since first playing them several years ago.  With the U16 players now training with the senior squads they had matured over the summer and went into the match playing more as a team than they had previously.

The result was an excellent win 12-7 with tries from Douglas Vallance-Nairn and David Kirkwood and a conversion from Jack McCombe.  The Paisley team were a large team who looked a daunting prospect for the Clydebank boys but as the match progressed it was obvious they were not going to go down without a fight.  The match was a fast affair that saw Clydebank run non-stop, chasing down and tackling the Paisley players at every opportunity.  The game was a great spectacle for all the Clydebank support who were impressed by the progress the boys have made since last season.
