Away to Wootton Bassett
The under 7's made the long trip to Wootton Bassett on a bright but cold Sunday morning.
The first team were put under pressure from a very good Wootton side, and as a result were making mistakes. Good running by Caden Ash did help Andover keep in touch, but they lost there first game 3-2 and the second by a wider margin. Caden scored 3 tries, shows what a good hair cut can do.

County Tournament - 2010
Andover under 8's, sponsored by Adept Power Solutions, were joint 5-5 winners with Havant at the County Tournament hosted by Winchester. The road to the final was closely fought in both the 1/4 final against Fordingbridge and the semi final against Romsey. Sterling defence play resulted in turn over balls ensuring Andover were always one step ahead when the crucial final whistle went. The boys were fantastic in attack displaying excellent ball handling skills, space awareness and always ready for that pass that often came before they were tagged. They listened well to the coaches on the pitch and successfully transferred the skills they'd learnt in training to full effect in the match situation. They gelled well as a team and truly unselfish play made for a great day of rugby, you really got the impression that the trys scored by an individual black shirt were scored for the All Black Team. A special thanks to the Dad's who helped the Mum's run the team on Mother's day!
