Bath Youth Rugby colts have four player representation in the Somerset U20 County Squad to play Devon U20 at Bideford RFC on Sunday 7th February 2010 (KO:2.30pm)...............

 

Mark WIDDOWSON [4] (last season's Bath Youth Rugby Colts and now playing adult rugby for Old Sulians RFC) Nick GERRISH [11] (last season's Bath Youth Rugby Colts and now playing adult rugby for Clifton RFC) join the HARRISON twins, Sam [13] & Tom [3] (Bath Youth Rugby Colts & now playing adult rugby for Hartpury RFC) in being selected to represent Somerset U20 in the first round match of the RFU National U20 County Competition.

Others, with close ties to Bath Youth Rugby, in the current Somerset County U20 Training Squad (but not available/selected for the Devon match) include Olly ROBINSON [7] (currently Lougbrough Uni) Evan SAWYER [5] (currently skiing!) and Chris COOK  [9] (Bath Rugby Academy).

It is worthy of mention that these seven County players, all from the same U19 age grade (born 1990-91), have played together all the way through the Bath Minis & Bath Juniors, and through the Somerset County age grades, and now they have successfully progressed into the adult game. Well done guys!
