Grasshoppers Continue Season With Good Home Win


Rugby result: Grasshoppers 24 Bank of England 10

Grasshoppers U14’s started this season's league campaign with a good win at home to Bank of England writes Phill Tait.

Joseph Formby opened the scoring for Hoppers with new player Barend Pietersen adding a second.

However Bank scored twice and only Harry Cushen’s reliable kicking separated the sides 12-10 at half time.

As seems the way with Hoppers a strong second half and some astute substitions by coach Dylan Matthews resulted in Formby scoring a second and skipper Ian Upton finishing the game off with a powerful run and try.

Harry Cushen was successful in two conversion attempts
