tu 17 May 2022 Cambridge	In Cambridge Saturday's Varsity game for the first three quarters looked like an Oxford Lancers win if not a repeat of last year's 36-00 Pythons whitewash. In Q4 two Python break away running touchdowns and converted points after led to a 14-12 copiously supported win. In the third quarter if the Lancers on fourth and goal had attempted and completed a field goal they would have won but they didn't know that at the time. Our journey to the game was hindered by a 30 minute tail back at the Cambridge end of the M11. It was still there the next day and now the A14 was closed by an accident east bound between junctions 31-35, four junctions? Confusingly eastbound at Cambridge junction numbers jump from 26 to 31.

mo 30 Aug 2021	The second three teamer of the Women's Central East Conference Saturday was held at the Peterborough Lions Rugby Club. Despite helpful directions from the Royals' #27 finding the ground confused both us and the satnav. Committed play from all three teams but perhaps most impressive was the Leicester Falcons finishing the day with just nine players for seven a side contact and still grinding it out. New to us an offensive penalty in your own end zone is a safety, make sense, how can you give a yardage penalty.
