U16s undefeated in early season matches

Drybrook under-16s vs Cwmbran
Drybrook under-16s continued their unbeaten start to the season with a 39-0 win over Cwmbran. Secure in the scrum, with Ollie Henson catching everything in the lineout, the pressure eventually told with a try for full-back Brett Thomas. Forwards Bailey Watts and Will Cook also scored to give a 15-0 half-time lead. A defence-splitting try straight from the training ground by Brett Thomas was supplemented by tries from Ethan Hopkins, Will Cook and Ollie Henson (Ollie Cook, two conversions).

Drybrook under-16s vs Berry Hill
Drybrook under 16s have made an excellent start to the season, improving with every game. First up was a local derby with Berry Hill, which ended in a 12-12 draw. Both tries were scored by Will Cook with bullocking runs through the middle to score under the posts (conversion: Ollie Cook).

Drybrook under-16s vs Old Cryptians
Drybrook did well to overcome a good Old Cryptians side 12-10 although it took 30 minutes for them to wake up and start playing to their potential. Cryptians took a deserved 10-nil lead before Drybrook struck back with a mazy run from speedy full-back Brett Thomas (conversion Ollie Cook). Drybrook then pounded the line until scrum-half Regan Marsh went over to seal the win.

Drybrook under-16s vs Chepstow
In their finest performance of the season so far, Drybrook needed no wake up calls against Chepstow, playing with superb pace, passion and precision for the full 80 minutes, winning 40-27. Security in the set-piece, solid driving over the gain line and a hunger for the ball in defence were the foundations of an excellent victory. Tries came from Brett Thomas (2), Ollie Cook, Ethan Hopkins, Will Cook and Bailey Watts. Ollie cook converted five tries, including one memorable kick from the touchline. A fine performance from every member of the team.
