Strathmore Match Reports

Despite the stormy weather in Montrose, it was only a light drizzle in Strathmore and the pitches weren't too muddy. The Micros played against two Strathmore sides and there were some excellent tries scored. Also, the tackling / tag-grabbing was excellent - obviously the British Bulldog is paying off!

The P4/5 side beat both Strathmore A and Strathmore B. They then faced a well-drilled Brechin side. Despite going down to two early tries, they played some attacking rugby to win a well- earned draw.

The P6/7 was short a few players but the team played well. Particular mention goes to those who have just started rugby, who showed first class commitment. The first game was against Strathmore and the tackling and rucking was first class. Montrose lost out in a closely-contested match. Montrose then played two very physical teams from Brechin and Morgan. Although they lost both matches, there was excellent spirit across the team and their heads never went down - well done!

Thanks to all of the coaches and also the parents who brought the players and provided great support for all of the team.
