Herts double against Kent
Hertfordshire beat Kent today 12-7.(HT 12-7)Try scorers: Ellena Perry & Syd Gregson. Conv: Zoe Harrison
Ellena's try came from a rucking and mauling session and followed big yards made by Vicci with Bryony in support. Syd's try was a brilliant catch and run down the line from Kent kick-off, evading and handing off several to score under the post.

However, that performance pales beside the U18s who destroyed Kent 60-0, including ten unanswered tries - four from Georgia Peedle, four from Lotte Clapp, one from Olivia Stembridge and one more (plus five conversions) from Claire Shutler.

The Club will also be running a BBQ with free hot dogs for players – spectators will have to buy their own!
