UNDER-15

Tiverton 0 South Molton 0

TIVERTON fielded a number of under-14s as they played out an extraordinary 0-0 draw with South Molton.

Harry Charteris, Elliott Griffin, Bill Manning and Hayden Eaton all featured for a new-look Tivvy team in an enthralling game.

The nature of the clash belied the scoreline, with a wealth of action at both ends.

The Tivvy players were on good form with the back row of Powell, Hussell and Luffman tackling everything that moved, and attacking with power and passion.

In the backs Howells, Stone and Emmanuel controlled the game well but couldn't break through Molton's defences.

Any potential new players are welcome to join the club for a free coaching session at Coronation Field at 6.30pm. Anyone interested should contact Olly Chanin on 07894 270488 or email tiverton youthrugby@hotmail.co.uk.
