Our U16 Unicorns played their first match alongside cluster partners Saracens Sonics in the brand-new HEM League (Herts, Essex and Middlesex), created this season. And what a start it was!

With only two training sessions together, the girls looked like they’d been playing as one team for years. From the kick-off, they took the game straight into Fullerians’ territory with strong running, sharp offloads and great work at the ruck.

Tries came from both forwards and backs as the girls mixed up their play and worked brilliantly together. Full credit must go to Fullerians, who kept their heads up and played right to the final whistle.

There will be tougher tests ahead, but for now it’s a very happy group of SOGs starting this new journey together.
