T's had a great day at 'Hoppers. Our hosts are such a nice bunch. We put out two teams, all our boys looking very useful and versatile. Our forwards covered key positions in the backs and no one was out of place. U12’s looking good for the start of the New Year with the Surrey Cup.

From the start this was a pretty one sided affair with T’s putting Grasshoppers under pressure straight away. Quick rucking straight runs, quick ball movement T’s winning this 11- 2 with Tries from Ollie x2 and Anthony with nice pick and go tries. Finley x2, Parker x2, Arthur B, Smashing their way through to score their tries. Arthur E x2 both tries coming from lovely cross field passes from Buddy then Finley for Arthur to fly down the wing and over the try line.

Grasshopper did have their moments of pressure, but some good quality defending managed to keep them at bay. Grasshoppers pressure did start to pay off towards with two quick tries. This was a great way for the U12’s to finish the year off.

In the last few week the boys have had some really high intense training sessions and the benefits are now starting to show. The off loading. Big tackles, Quick rucking and Ball movement.

We also a debutant today with Teddy joining us from Teddington. Welcome Teddy.

The U12’s like to wish everyone at TRFC a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. See you all in 2026.
