Moseley WRFC successfully defended their Southampton7's title this Saturday.
Just as they did at the Rugby4Heroes 10's, defeating Camp Hill in the final, Moseley again overcame opposition from a higher league when they defeated Hove of Championship South 1 in the final of the Southampton 7's.
3 pool wins (vs Chichester 31-19, Woodpeckers 31-12, Portsmouth 59-0) and a draw (Hove 7-7) saw Mose progress to the semi-finals as group winners. Here they faced the home team Southampton, winning 14-7.
Hove, who progressed from the same group in 2nd place, stormed their semi, beating Bracknell by over 30 points.
So Moseley and Hove were to meet again in the final, with honours even from the earlier game. Both sides delivered a high octane game of good 7's rugby. Ultimately, it was accuracy of the boot that separated them, with Moseley winning by 14 points to 10.
Squad :- Kerry McCormick (c), Clare Bowyer, Beks Rothnie, Kerianne Crandall, Emma Shields, Nicola Sykes, Nicola Brown, Caroline Archer, Laura knott, Shamaila Begum, Laura Ayling.
Next weekend, MWRFC move on to the highly competitive Chester 7's.
