Park dominated the game from the outset.

The scrummaging was excellent; infact scrum-half Ben Crossley had one of the busiest days of his life, deftly feeding the ball to anyone who wanted it badly enough - and there seemed to be no shortage of eager hands waiting.

Sedgley fought hard for every ball and as a squad carried no passengers on the day.

Excellent tackling by Chris Drogan, Nick Abbot, John Critchley, Josh Horner and Joseph Holt halted Heaton Moors every drive and break.

It was fierce and committed, each playing as if the Park were in the final itself.

The tenacity of the Parks defence combined with some hard driving runs from Alex French, Todd Keers, Otis Redford and Lewis Philips produced the desired

results, giving the Park a 275 lead by half time.

After the break Heaton Moor tried that little bit harder and intensified their tackling, but thanks to some excellent supporting work by Reece Byrne, Anton Matisse and Ross Howcroft any Sedgley ball carrier was never far away from back up support.

One or two balls that did bounce loose were quickly snapped up and quickly recycled by full-back Jack Roper and winger Matthew Whittington to ensure that very little was left to chance.

Alex French played a very strong driving game and bagged three excellent tries for his troubles.

Josh Horner in his new position of wing forward had the game of his life not only getting a hat-trick of tries but tackling in such quick succession that one parent wondered if Josh had a twin on the pitch.

Otis Redford was rewarded for his determined running and got his first try this year.

Todd Keers was fed a beautiful pass from the scrum by Josh Horner to bag the last try of the game, fitting reward for his high work rate on the day.

If the Under 14s can give the same level of effort and commitment seen today then there is every chance they will go all the way in this tournament.
