Royston girls don Hemel Hempstead shirts all for their love of rugby

Many would think its a strange thing to do, wear another clubs shirts! But the Royston RFC girls know better. 

Kevin Green who has been coaching the girls explained, "because girls rugby is still a growing sport, clubs cluster to make up teams and this season Royston girls are clustering at U15 with Hemel Hempstead and Luton . 

The cluster team is entered into the RFU U15 girls league, and today we played our first league match against another cluster team ( St Neots, Newmarket, Harlow). The girls played fantastically well, especially as it was the first time they'd been together this season. 

The final score reflected how well they'd played, 58-27! The next home match will be at Royston next week and we will all be proudly wearing Royston shirts.!"

Any senior school girl wishing to play rugby at Royston should contact  Jamie Johnson -ccc@roystonrugbyclub.co.uk

Hi Amela

Do you mean girls rugby? I'm not sure as I've been involved for a few years (daughter grown up etc.) - I now write for http://www.scrumqueens.com/, which deals with international women's rugby.

If you are looking for information I might still know a few people.

As for websites, you could start your own. That is what I did 10 years ago with http://letchworthgirls.blogspot.com/ (no longer updated, but you get the idea) - the first posts were these, which explains it a bit http://letchworthgirls.blogspot.co.uk/2006_03_01_archive.html
