Season gets underway for Gibraltar Dragons junior rugby

The new season has started with the fixtures of the under 17s and under 15s being sent out and commencing on the weekend of the 9th of November with both teams playing at Marbella.

This is the first season for the VOLKER STEVIN UNDER 17S who had a friendly last week against CR Seville Mairena - their first game together as a team. They gave a good account of themselves, against an established team and with a final score of 15-3 they certainly showed they are here to compete. They are pitted in the league against Marbella A and B Club Rugby Malaga and San Roque who are also fielding there first under 17s team, a good sign for local campo rugby.

The SPORTS BAR UNDER 15s also played at Seville and were unlucky not to win the game, it ended in a 5-5 draw, they showed they could do well this season and we look forward to watching the progress of both teams.

Also at Seville were the SG HAMBROS UNDER 13S boys who lost by 1 try to nil. Sadly they had no time to warm up and were thrown into the deep end and didn’t have time to gel, but they showed some excellent skill levels and hopes are high for a good season for the boys. However, we are still waiting for the boys' fixture lists as well as the Ibex under 11s and 9s, we will publish these as soon as they are available.

Gibraltar Dragons are looking for new players at under 11s and under 9s and everyone is welcome, girls are also eligible to play at this age and we would like to see some coming along.
