ON A lovely sunny Easter Sunday morning Minehead Barbarians youngest age group, the Under 6s, played in a thrilling match which was enjoyed by players, parents and spectators alike.

With energy, enthusiasm, and lots of determination, the team took to the field ready to showcase their skills. Lara was quick on her feet, dodging defenders and making some impressive runs.

Winnie showed incredible teamwork, always looking for the perfect pass to keep the game flowing. Edie was a powerhouse, tackling with confidence and making sure the opposition had no easy way through. Reggie and Lenny worked brilliantly together, supporting each other with strong defensive plays and clever positioning.

Mostin was fearless, charging forward and keeping the pressure on the opposing team. Moss had a fantastic game, showing sharp decision-making and excellent ball control. Nancy was lightning-fast, weaving through players and making sure her side stayed on the attack. And George rounded off the team effort with superb passing and a great understanding of the game, keeping the momentum high.

A huge well done to all the players for their passion and dedication! It was a match full of fun, teamwork, and impressive rugby skills.

Meanwhile, Minehead Barbarians Under 10s hosted tourists Barkers Butts, who brought 31 players.

With the hosts only having 11 it was decided to play 3 x15 minute games, all played in great spirit. Minehead played like they have all season with great team work, ferocious tackling and some brilliant ball handling skills resulting two two draws and a home win.

With only one game lost all season it was a difficult decision to pick out any individuals but it was decided to award the Gladiator of the day to Liam Floyd, while Barbarian of the day went to Martha Ford whose straight hard running and fearless involvement in the game was great to see.
