Wexford's U15's had a friendly at home against Tullow at Park Lane. The Wanderers got off to a great start with Brionn Coffey scoring a brace and David Kavanagh making it 15 0 after 10 mins. A rout looked on; how silly of us to write Tullow off. They got their pack moving and aided by inconsistant tackling by Wexford , the visitors scored 3 tries and a penalty to make it 15 - 20 at the break

The Wexford pack responded and driven on by scrum-half Jack Stafford it resulting in better ball for the centres Brionn Coffey and Josh Healy. Going into the final quarter the game was delicately poised at 27 - 27. Wexford just wanted it more and went on to score 2 further tries to win 39 27.As a training exercise this was a good work out, but a lot of hard work lies ahead.

U.15's v Wicklow (SEL)

Wicklow 10 Wexford Wanderers 38.

Wexford travelled with a depleated side for the first game of the season, quite a few lads are involved in GAA finals and are preparing for same. Fifteen players travelled and boy did fifteen play; someone suggested conceeding because our margin for error was so tight-- the firing squad are on standby if there is any similar behaviour.

Wexford shot out of the blocks, they kicked off; the ball was caught and moved right to centre Brionn Coffee who broke 3 tackles to score under the posts ,full back Luke Lacey converted. More pressure and Brionn scored again. 5 mins later great pressure resulted in prop Greg McGrath scoring a great forwards try. Luke made it 0 - 19 after 10 mins.

Wcklow got their running game going and battled hard and scored a deserved try just before half time, leaving the score 5 19 at the break.

Wexford had to conserve energy as no subs were available, so ruck and maul was the order of the day. Daire MacCormack made a great intercept in midfield and quick ball to Brionn Coffee made it 5 - 24. Almost immediately Brionn scored again and Luke converted.

Wicklow responded and scored in the corner. The final try was scored by Kevin Bierney after a fine passing move involving David Kavanagh,Josh Healy and Brionn Coffee Final score Wicklow 10 Wexford Wanderers 38

U.13's v WICKLOW (SEL)

Wicklow 0 Wexford Wanderers 62

Wexford Under 13’s made the transition from Mini rugby to youth rugby in style last Saturday scoring 10 tries and six conversions to no score.

Wexford won the toss and elected to receive possession. Wicklow started with great purpose and troubled Wexford in the opening exchanges especially at the breakdown. It looked after the 1^st five minutes that it could develop into a tight encounter. However despite the possession Wicklow enjoyed in the opening exchanges Wexford proved defensively strong and held the gain line. A trade mark tackle from fly half Captain Peter Barry stopped the Wicklow number 8 and indeed he didn’t attack the 10 channel for the rest of the day.

On 6 Minutes Wexford turned over possession and moved the ball to centre Ian Bennett who powered through to score an impressive opener under the sticks which was duly converted by Peter Barry.

From here on wexford grew in confidence and soon after Ben Moore scored an impressive try. By Half time the score was 24 nil with further tries from David Doyle and Ian Bennett.

The second half was more impressive with the wexford scrum starting to function better after a shaky start in this area. David Doyle finished with 3 tries from Number 8.

Other try scorers were Daniel o Regan, Josh Christe, Peter Barry and Alex Ryan.

A fine result for wexford but tougher challenges lay ahead.

Man of the Match: David Doyle

Top Scorer: Peter Barry with 6 conversions and 1 try.
