The Sligo Champion

Rugby results at the weekend

-

The Sligo RFC U13s had a well-deserved 41-32 win against Corinthian­s last Saturday in Hamilton Park. This was a fast-moving game between two very even teams, but it was the home side who finished the stronger to make it three wins from three and maintain their 100% record.

The U15s travelled to Oughterard and were rewarded with a 27-15 win. This was a hard-fought game, but it was the visitors who made the most from their possession and came away with their first win of the season.

The Sligo U17 Developmen­t team played host to Corrib in Hamilton Park on Sunday.

A tough encounter was always on the cards, but a determined home side were impressive running up 26points without reply in the first half.

The second half was a bruising affair, with Sligo playing their bench and were unfortunat­e not to capitalise more on their possession.

Corrib had a period of sustained pressure and were rewarded with two tries, but it was too little, too late and it was the home-side who came away with the well-deserved win, final score 26-12 in favour of Sligo.
