Once upon a time, on a sunny Saturday afternoon Bridgwater seconds travelled to Wells, looking to complete this fixture at the third attempt. Adverse weather meant that the seconds hadn’t played for nearly a month; however it was soon evident that there were no signs of rustiness or vegetation. The team welcomed Matt Ranson back […]

Bridgwater’s second string welcomed Crewkerne to College Way on a rather blustery day that played havoc with the ball whenever it was in flight. With wins for both teams the previous week, confidence was high with both sides thinking they could better the last encounter which saw the spoils shared with a well fought 12-12 […]

Bridgwater’s seconds travelled to Old Sulians in the only match to be played by Bridgwater due to  waterlogged pitches at College Way, postponing games for both the 1st XV and 3rd XV. Bridgwater successfully completed the double on an opponent for the first time this season after winning 27-14 earlier in the season. There was […]

Bridgwater’s second string hosted Midsomer Norton for their first game of 2014. In the reverse fixture it was Midsomer Norton who took the greater of the spoils by besting Bridgwater 20-13. As has often been the case this season Bridgwater selected a youthful side with six teenagers in the starting 15 and 10 players under […]

Bridgwater travelled to Yatton looking to avenge the narrow defeat suffered at home, earlier in the season. Bridgwater welcomed back Satchell after 6 weeks out following some dodgy driving and gave a debut to new recruit Foggy. Despite an injury to hooker Josh Sturdy and the very end of the warm up, Bridgwater started the […]

Bridgwater welcomed Hornets, who started the day two league places above them. Albion were looking to build upon recent wins, however events did not unfold as planned. Bridgy showed early promise and had the better of the first ten minutes, spending a good deal of time in Hornets 22, following strong running from House and […]

Albion travelled to Bristol with a strong team to take on bottom of the league Old Reds, looking to take the maximum five points from the game. This is exactly what happened. Reds started the game with 13 men, although at various points went up to 14 men and finished the game with the full […]

After a weekend off both teams were looking to get their respective seasons going with a much needed win. Bridgwater looked to play some expansive rugby straight from the kick off and only a knock on from the returning Basson stopped a try from being scored. Albion were looking dangerous, with the backline linking up […]

Bridgwater travelled to Castle Cary with a strong looking side, hoping to continue building on the promise that has been showing in recent weeks. This was always going to be a tough game against a Cary first team sporting their usual large pack. The game kicked off with Bridgy playing down the slope. Neither team […]
