Minety completed their pre-season training this week with two highly competitive trial games.
The first was held at Minety on Tuesday evening with Cricklade as the opponents. Played with rolling substitutions over three 20 minute periods, everyone got a run out and Minety won 31-7.
The second was played on Saturday away against Tadley seconds. A combined Minety first-and-second team (the 1.5 XV!) took a while to get going but eventually won 15-43.
For reports on these games, go to the Match Reports section. Additional photos will shortly be posted on the Minety FaceBook page (see the Links page for a link to this site).
Next Saturday, 11 September, the season proper begins. Both teams play at home in their respective leagues, the firsts against Wootton Bassett seconds and the seconds against Devizes thirds. Kick-offs: 3.00 pm.
