Great start at Bury

In Ladies Match Reports by Rochdale Rugby

It’s times like this I wish I was a better writer. I wish I was had an ability with words to truly convey my feelings. I fear I cannot truly express the level of pride I have today.

1 year on from beginning as Coach for Rochdale’s Ladies Team we played our 1st game of our first competitive season.

The Women of Rochdale travelled to a small part of Heywood called Bury to play a well established team.

We played hard from the start and established a lead but playing 1 person down proved to be our weakness.

With a 10 point deficit Rochdale rallied fantastically and with 20 minutes to go drew the scores level at 26-26.

Bury came out very strong in the last quarter and took the lead but Rochdale crosses the whitewash 2 more times and finished the victors.

31-38
