On a pleasant winter's afternoon, Norwich Medics made their way to Holt RFC in North Norfolk. This must be one of the nicest clubs in Norfolk, with an excellent clubhouse, very well kept pitches and excellent hospitality.
A strong performance from the Medics team today saw us achieve our second shut-out of the season. The first half was one of our better starts this season, picking up the challenge from the off and playing a 15-man game. Holt were awarded an early penalty, and went for goal, but the kicker shaded it just wide. Tries began to flow and apart from a ten minute period of sustained pressure from Holt during the last quarter, the Medics dominated the match.
Notable performances from Rob Spooner, a fresher and newcomer to the sport, who was secure in all aspects of his game and is becoming quite a star. Peter Hartley on the blindside also put in a great show and of course Frodo as ever. Support running was impressive from all players and there was plenty of off-loading in tackles. Mention in Dispatches to Jamie Pruden for his second try in as many matches.
We return to Holt later in the season, due to a pitch clash at Crusaders, and look forward to the friendly atmosphere of the game and the post-match discussion.
