UNDER 9s
Again Cary turned up with good numbers and had to lend the opposition two players, so well done to Ewan Gale, Damon Stone and Hugh Johnson for volunteering. The matches were played at good pace with both teams evenly matched, Cary having much of the possession with Tor scoring their tries from break-aways. Good solid running was demonstrated by Thomas Crabb, which set up Joe Dibble for Cary's try. Man of the Match: Joe Shepherd.
UNDER 10s
Against the run of play, Tor scored a break-away try to get the game going. After five minutes Cary hit back from the kick-off with good running from fly-half George Shepherd and support play from Josh Coombes. Tor used their strong forwards to good use to suck in the Cary defence to then get the ball out to the wing to score. After the break, and following strong words from the coaches, Castle Cary gave more width to the game to run around Tor's defence to leave the scores 15–20 in the visitors' favour.
UNDER 10s
Quicker rucking and quicker hands saw Cary run Tor's defence to score two unanswered tries. In response, Tor used some pace out wide and hit back with a well-worked try. After half-time Tor gave away a few silly penalties and quick taps from scrum-half Liam Atkins to see the back line eager to run the ball. Great hands from Josh Reynolds, Matt Stripe and Jordan Skirten saw Tom Wilkinson score in the corner. Cary scored two further tries with Tor hitting back at the end of the game to score a good try using the width and length of the pitch, leaving the scores 15–25 again to the visitors' advantage. Man of the Match was awarded to Josh Reynolds.
