South Delta She Devils Rugby Team - 2008

Women’s rugby is back at South Delta. Working with a squad of 24, only one player had any games expereince. Our first game against Heritage was a hard fought battle seeing three tries scored; one for us and two for them. Our set scrums and line-outs were flawless but we were beaten in the loose.
Our second game and the first with our new jerseys saw the team come out a little flat and Hanson was able to sore and convert a couple of first half tries. The She Devils came out stronger in the second half and managed to score a converted try and hold Hanson to only one score that was unconverted. The final score was 19- 7.
Our most recent game against Tweedsmuir was a hard defensive battle which saw the opponents display excellent ball control but we manged to hold them to only one unconverted try. The She Devils next game is against a strong Aldergrove side and our last league game will be against Haney.

Devils Road Trip
36 Junior Rugby players made the trip to Penticton for the 2 day Pak’ it tournament from both the Grade 9 and Grade 10 teams. In our first game for the grade 9 team we had a tough one as we came up against a solid opponent from the North called Princess Margaret and we lost the game 36 to 7. The guys bounced back in their next game playing well together and defeating Collemnetza 24 - 5. In the Grade 9’s third game, they won a convincing victory against Penticton breaking into full flow in a convincing 39 - 0 victory.
The Grade 10′ team faced Williams Lake in their first match. They hadn’t lost all season and they seemed pretty ‘cocky’ until the game began. The team played textbook rugby in a decisive 26 - 5 win. During this match some of the newer players got into their stride and began to shine. In our 2nd game we were in tough against Kelowna Christian as it was an early game on Saturday, we lost a close one 14 - 7. In our last game we played Merritt and the boys finally got things going again with a good win 26 - 0.
