County results: round 1

For unknown reasons county results will not be appearing on Rugby Roundup this year (they are now  there, apparently - I was misinformed. Apologies). However, I have been sent the results of last week's first round games (below). County rugby across the board is now being taken a more seriously than in the past as it is the first step on the way to possible national selection.

So it is  disappointing to see walk-overs. In the seniors Durham (home of a premiership club??) and Sussex were unable to raise teams, while Staffs and Warwickshire cannot enter a U15 side (and have to combine for the U18s), and Cheshire with no junior county teams at all. What happens to girls from these areas, I wonder?

Herts had a mixed weekend - the U18s (with Sydney!) being unbeatable (again - when did they last lose?), while the seniors and U15s were less fortunate.

Meanwhile Sasha was playing back with Eastern Counties seniors and scored a dramatic try - see comments!

    Sunday 29 September 2009 - Hampshire Under 18s 27 Hertfordshire Under 18s 10 (at Petersfield)

    Unless you know different?

  2. That is probably the last loss - but I do not have a full set of results (though, if I hunted around I probably could find them). Last season they seemed to have it very easy - and most years since they were set up (especially after Essex declined) they tended to dominate the East at least.

  3. The stats do appear to be available on Rugby Roundup - select country as England women and RFUW CB Championship.

    I was playing for Middlesex v Eastern Counties and so was glad to have my suspicions confirmed - that the replacement prop who scored against us was indeed Sasha Acheson(of this blog) and that she apparently had her own supporters club on the sidelines.

    Great try resulting from a turnover in the EC 22 and Sasha ran the length of the pitch to score - although not so great to be on the receiving end!

    Despite the result being awful for Middlesex having been unbeaten 2006-2009 (did not play 2010), hopefully the result will prove a boost to Eastern Counties women's rugby, as I have heard there are funding/recognition issues for women's representative rugby there.
