Team URFC!

URFCs women's team had their final games of the season this Sunday. Some 50-60 players from seven clubs met up at Fyrisfjädern for a development 10s tournament in five mixed teams: Uppsala, Berserkers, Hammarby/Berserkers, Exiles/Erikslund and Umeå/Södertälje.

After a big first leg in Stockholm last weekend, Uppsala Berserkers made the voyage to Gothenburg to fight for 5th place. Even with a full squad for the last 15’s game of the season, the ladies knew they needed to put in a massive effort. Full time 39-5 to Gothenburg and a tough loss.

URFC Berserkers managed to score one try through Dani Sakai Ellis, but also wasted several chances, leaving a lingering feeling of disappointment. Gothenburg lead 20-7 in the playoff with the return match scheduled for next weekend.

Not knowing what to expect from these new opponents, at least we knew that we were gonna give all rookies as much game time as possible, and that pressure was on the experienced players to keep the structure on the field. The full time Saturday score was 43–17 to the home team; a URFC Berserkers win with 67–43 on aggregate.

This past Sunday, rookies and experienced players alike traveled from central Sweden to play a practice game in Enköping.
