A tackle Sasha would be proud of!
Thanks to Saturday's a Rugby Day for this.
I hesitate to maybe highlight this at a time when we trying to bring in new girls, so maybe a should emphasise that this is an international U19 game. You pretty unlikely to see this sort of thing at club level, especially at U12 or U15s!
Anyway, Wales U19s vs USA. The Welsh wing (14) gets a quick pass inside and tries to dodge through the US forward line. Unfortunately the US loose-head has other ideas....
To be honest what is really impressive is that the Welsh girl is not only still in one piece after that, but actually managed to lay the ball back so that Wales kept possession. They breed them tough in the valleys!!
There are also a few more video clips from the same game, including a line-out "masterclass" and two magnificent tries. Well worth a look.
