Our 20s are looking to continue their good form when they take on Dolphin in Musgrave Park on Saturday next ko 2.30. This is a team that has a lot of potential once they get some real game time behind them.
Our 20s made the short trip to Rosbrien to play old cresent in the 2nd round of the league after the frustration not having a game the previous week, they were eager to kick start their campaign. After a bright start we got on the scoreboard with a 7 pointer cresent replied with converted try and the game was even Bruff kicked on with 2 more try’s before h/t one from a maul from the cresent 22 . The 2nd half saw us kick on with with 3 further try’s to see out the game on a scoreline of 39-17 credit to cresent who never gave up and scored 2 lovely try’s of their own. Try scorers for Bruff Stephen Donworth 2 Danny Gleeson Jason Fitzgibbon Paul Treacy Cian Clifford 1 each. While management will be pleased with the result I’m sure there are areas they will be looking for improvement.

Our u-20s who played Young Munsters in Tom Clifford Park today
Bruff u20’s will contest the semi-final of the league vs UCC next Saturday Feb 25th thanks to a 35-21 win over UL Boh’s at home in Kilballyowen at the weekend. Bruff went into last weekends game knowing they needed a bonus point win to ensure a play-off place in what was the last round of the league phase of the competition. The pressure didn’t get to them and they delivered in style securing the try bonus before half time. Bruff had 2 tries each from Dylan Reeves-Wasik and Liam Barret with Cian Clifford also getting in for a try. Kevin Mcmanus provided the extras from the boot.
Saturdays game will be a massive challenge travelling to face the run away league leaders UCC in the Mardyke. But Bruff will not fear their opponents haven already beaten them 10-21 when the sides met in early January.
