There had been a rugby tournament in October that St. Faiths had played, at a school called New Hall. We won our group matches, but guess who we lost to in the semifinals? Felsted. We were looking to get revenge from them, but unfortunately for us, we lost 2 tries to nil.
In the first half, Felsted dominated and scored a try, their lock pummeling through our defense to score. There was no real action other than the try, but we kept them at 7 points. At halftime, our coach said that the forwards needed to get to the rucks and the tackling needed to be better.
The halftime break seemed to be the spark for us. Our tackling was still iffy, but our forwards were getting to the rucks. However, Felsted still had the advantage over us in terms of possession and scored the winning try with one of their backs dodging our defense and running to score the concluding try.
