Stewartry Sharks’ primary sevens took part in a mini tournament with Dumfries Saints and the touring Dalziel Dragons at Park Farm on Sunday.
The Sharks kicked off against Dumfries, who were immediately on the front foot and building phases of possession, using their well-drilled rucking game to recycle the ball and spread it to their fast players on the wing.
The pressure paid off with the opening try, which seemed to spur Stewartry into action, with strong runs from Matthew, Zander and Annie taking the game to Dumfries despite the strong home defence. Eventually, the ball was swung away from the breakdown area to find bit of space for Alex to use his gas to streak through a gap and get across for the leveller.
