Sunday 1st February GOWERTON Match report

Firstly well done to all the Mumbles Pirates today! I know it was a really cold start this morning and for a lot of us, we probably didn't want to venture out into the nasty weather, but that said it was worth it. the Skulls were really fired up for a great game against the mighty Gowerton pack...and boy what a game, its certainly one im going to remember for a long time to come as a Coach - everything today was perfect, our running our passing movement, supporting play Defensive and Attacking lines it was nice to see it finally pay off after all the training we have had.
5-5 it finished with Max Bowyer scoring a Hat Trick (WELL DONE!!) Jake scoring for 1 and our player of the week award winner John.. well done to you :)
POSITIVE PLAY
Gowerton were strong and Kelvin has trained them well it showed in thier game style and play... we were also strong and gave width to our play by inclusion of great passing finding space and running the lines very closely... THE BIG MOMENT we had 5 tags and just prevented a try scoring opportunity (WELL DONE CONNOR MORT!) we defended well on our line, and closed them down easily so much so that Gowerton were on the back foot and back up to the Half Way line! we got the tags and turned over balls about 3 times it was outstanding to watch as your children started to Gel as a perfect team, i am very proud of what they all acheived today.

Thanks to all
A very Happy Coach
