East Lothian Girls Participate at National Cup Qualifier

The National Girls U15 and U18 Cup recently got underway at Murrayfield with teams from the East of Scotland taking part

National Girls Cup

 

East Lothian entered an U15 team made up mainly of girls from Preston Lodge and the East Lothian U18 girls joined up again with the Lismore girls that they played with in the U18 School Shield Final. The U18 girls played against Biggar, Murrayfield Wanders and Gala and while giving a really good account of themselves, they ended up losing all three games.

The U15 girls played two exciting fixtures against Biggar and West Lothian respectively and although they lost closely, they played some impressive rugby. The contact skills showed good signs of improvement and confidence of the girls is starting to grow with every experience they get.

Both sides will now be entered into the next round of the tournament and hopefully gain more experience with this exposure to the National Cup.

There are currently some exciting opportunities for girls to take part in rugby in East Lothian with regular sessions on a Monday night at the Marymurray pitch in Prestonpans from 6pm to 7.30pm. All U15 and U18 girls in East Lothian are welcome at these sessions.
