The P4s demonstrate their “human pyramid”!

P4s Claim Another Big Win

The P4s made it two wins in succession as they came away from PL with another set of winners’ medals. Like their P7 counterparts, it was great to see some different faces in the team as the big squad was put to good use. Well done!

Wee Reds Minis Excel at PL

Congratulations to all the Wee Reds Mini teams on their performance again at the weekend, with the P4s and the P7s winning and the P5s and P6s finishing runners up in their respective age groups at the Preston Lodge Mini Tournament.

Wee Reds Rampant in Borders

It was a tremendous day for the Wee Reds Minis in the Borders last Sunday when the P5s and the P7s both won their respective competitions, the P6s finished runners up and the P4s reached the semi-final in theirs. Well done to all the players, who all played a great brand of rugby in the true spirit of the game. This Sunday the Wee Reds are off to the Livingston Mini and Micro Tournament – probably the first time that the P1s will have travelled to an away tournament. Our best wishes go to all squads and players.

Wee Reds P5s Win at Gala

Chris Paterson was on hand to present the trophy and medals to the victorious Wee Reds P5 team on Sunday at the Gala Tournament.

The P5s has an outstanding tournament winning all three pool matches against Hawick, Melrose and West of Scotland, before disposing of Selkirk by 6 tries to 2 in the semi-final. The final saw a rematch with Hawick and in an enthralling and exciting game, the Wee Reds emerged victorious by 4 tries to 3 to claim the trophy and individual medals which were presented by Scotland’s all time leading points scorer Chris Paterson, who praised the team’s offloading skills.

P6 Exceptional Runners Up

Congratulations to the P6 team (pictured above) who won all four pool matches – against Barbarians, Hawick, West of Scotland and Selkirk, before beating Gala in the semi-final, scoring an incredible 22 tries whilst only conceding 2 in the process. In the final, though, they came up against a much physically bigger English side – Morpeth – and the size did make a difference on the day. Brilliant effort though!

Reds Retain Pond Plate at 7s

On Saturday, the Reds travelled through to Inverleith Park in Edinburgh to play in the Edinburgh Northern 7s Tournament – one of the biggest in Edinburgh. Two weeks ago, Jack Frame returned to action after a long-term injury and on Saturday, the Reds were also delighted to welcome back Mark Green and Gregor Stewart (pictured above), both of whom have been injured since before Christmas.

It took the squad a while to gel, but once they got going they clicked and they came away with the Pond Plate trophy, having beaten English guest side Millom from Cumbria in the semi-final before disposing of Liberton 46-7 in the final.

The Reds squad featured Andrew Whitelaw (captain), Sean Hagerty, Kieran Cochrane, Peter Millar, Lauchlan McCall, Gregor Stewart, Ross Tulloch, Murray Smith, Mark Green, Mark Caddle and Jack Frame.
