On a bright spring-like morning, Bognor's newest rugby squad set off for their inaugural match at Pulborough.

The squad of 11 girls met coach Steve Andrews at Pulborough RC for an hour-and-a-quarter’s coaching followed by a match against Pulborough girls.

The Bognor team have been together only since Christmas and have trained in some of the wettest and muddiest weather of the year, but have shown great enthusiasm and tenacity.

The session started with some warm-up drills, then passing, rucking and tackling using each other and the tackle bags. This was a joint session with the Pulborough girls.
