2022 competition day 2


Unfortunately Wembley Stallions weren't able to make this tournament which left us with a two game day.

Game one was between Kent Exiles and London Warriors. It was unusual not to see the Warriors in their regular all black uniforms. They took control from the start and despite a spirited performance from the Exiles time won 67-0

Game 2 Birmingham Lions V Kent Exiles


Birmingham were facing a very limited Kent Exiles team in this second game.

Afia Law and Sophia Klair set about the Kent defence with gusto. A couple of injuries coming together put the Exiles into a position where they could not continue to play.

The final score was 49-0 to the Lions

Final comment


Although a smaller than planned tournament it was enjoyable for the crowd to watch and they watched some class ball being played. The scores don't really show the amount of effort put in by Kent to make it a watchable tournament.

The next tournament on 11th June is hosted by the Hertfordshire Cheetahs
