Berry Hill 0 Cirencester 5

Berry Hill played their closing match of 2009 against a strong Cirencester side. Both teams were evenly matched with the 2 front rows going head to head. Hill had the first attempt for points when they elected to kick a penalty but the ball drifted wide. More close exchanges followed with strong defending required by Hill as Cirencester turned on the pressure and targeted the line. Just before the break Cirencester took a turn to kick for goal but again the ball missed the mark leaving both teams with nothing on the board for 30 minutes of hard work. The second half followed the same close format as the first but with Hill now playing up the slope Cirencester looked the more threatening to score. The solitary try finally came in last 7 minutes when Hill failed to defend a scrum in their 22. A great game to finish on before Christmas with the next match a local county cup derby against Lydney. Berry Hill men of the match which were picked by Cirencester were Matty Office and Harry Brown. Great hospitality by Cirencester with a return match eagerly awaited.
