B&A RFC 13, Camborne 20 (23/03/13)

| 11/04/2013

Camborne will feel themselves extremely fortunate to have come away from Bridgwater with a narrow victory. Stuart Heal returned to the starting line-up following a training injury to Will Kerry as Bridgwater looked to upset high-flying Camborne. For much of the match, the home side looked likely every bit as good as their rivals and […]

B&A RFC 27, Old Redcliffians 40 (02/03/13)

| 11/04/2013

Conditions were perfect for Rugby in this afternoons match at College Way for what was always going to be a very tough match for the home side. Bridgwater & Albion did very well to come away with a 4-try bonus point and put to bed memories of the 44-5 defeat suffered at the hands of […]

Bridgwater gained revenge for a defeat at Sidmouth earlier in the season and in the process denied the seasiders a bonus point.

Thornbury 14, B&A RFC 15 (16/02/13)

| 11/04/2013

Even the Thornbury supporters agreed after the game that Bridgwater were the better side and deserved their victory.  However, as the score suggests, it was very tight. The downside of the victory was seeing Nick Francis taken to hospital by ambulance following a heavy tackle in which he was dumped to the floor. His hand […]

B&A RFC 17, Oldfield Old Boys 13 (09/02/13)

| 11/04/2013

This narrow win for Bridgwater took the home side two places up the table and out of the relegation zone. Bridgwater dominated much of the territory and should, perhaps, have scored more than three tries. One of their failings was to play expansive rugby too near their own defensive zone.  The home side gave league […]

B&A RFC 10, Weston RFC 54 (01/02/13)

| 11/04/2013

Somerset Cup Quarter Final A new-looking Bridgwater side could make no impression on a Weston side who looked every bit as good as their exalted league position suggests. Weston dominated the game up front as a new look home front row, including new prop, Lovejoy, were under pressure. Another debutant was winger Joel Clark who […]

North Petherton RFC 48, B&A RFC 0 (05/01/13)

| 11/04/2013

The score just about sums up the day for Bridgwater. The league leaders were in total control for much of match and thoroughly deserved this, their third victory over Bridgwater in under a year. Bridgwater have once again dropped into the relegation zone whilst North Petherton have consolidated their position at the top of the […]

Kevin Innalls the head coach at Bridgwater and Albion has endured a pretty tough time since he took over the hot seat at Bath Road just after Christmas 2011, but thankfully over the last couple of months the fortunes of the Club have taken a turn for the better.  After being relegated from National Three […]
