| Tom Howe and OV Ian Brown. Why have they swapped shirts? |
Saturday saw back to back games on the 1st XV pitch. The Old Vikings provided the warm up act in a match against Henley Hawks 2nd XV. Despite going down, the OVs put up spirited resistance and it was nice to see some old faces coming out of retirement for the occasion. The match raised money for the Wooden Spoon charity, an English and Irish rugby board initiative which, in its own words aims "to make a positive impact on the lives of disadvantaged children and young people through a commitment to quality charitable work."
The 1st XV were clearly inspired as they piled on the points against local rivals reading Bluecoat School. A final score of 28-19 flattered the visitors, with our boys dominating from start to finish.
