Match preview LWWRFC vs Barnes Ladies
Sunday 6th February 2022, ODP, Kick off 2:30pm
This Sunday sees a big local derby for our women’s team, as they take on Barnes Ladies RFC at Old Deer Park.
The teams have met once this season already, with Barnes taking the victory. The match took place back in November and was slightly unsettled from the off, when no referee had arrived by the 2:30pm kick off. One of the Barnes coaches (a qualified ref) took the whistle so the match could go ahead and did a fantastic job. By half time the delayed appointed ref had made it and took charge for the second half. The match was hard, but cleanly, fought with some excellent tries scored by both Welsh and Barnes. Unfortunately for Welsh, despite playing well, the result didn’t come and the final score was 27-17.
This Sunday is a huge opportunity for the team to show what they are made of and chalk up a big W. As ever, having supporters cheering the team on makes a massive difference, so please do come down to ODP on Sunday afternoon and help cheer our Women’s team on to retain second place in their league.
