Bright Skies welcomed Montville, Morristown & Long Valley to 8 lined pitches ready for all 39 matches and a tackle clinic.
Owl Division
The Denville Dawgs Owl division played rival Montville Wanderers and Morristown Colonials. . With basic rugby skills and emphasizing sportsmanship the dawgs took to the pitch.
Some crafty scoring and stingy defensive play by Emily Dobbs, Virginia Ryan, Christopher Carmagnola, Luke Miniter, Caitlin Skinner, Sara Miniter, and Matt Corley. Supporting their team from the sidelines were Ray Tomaszeski and Ben Miniter.
Falcon Division
The Falcons came together this week and looked as if they have been playing together for weeks. The teamwork, passing and ball handling is getting better with a number of try’s being scored after two, three, four and sometimes five players touching the ball and with everyone following the play and “being in the pocket” of the player in front of them. With scores coming from Will, Joseph, MacKenzie, Robert, Michael, Steve, Stephen, Jacob, Joshua and Thomas. There was also great defense by the entire team, grabbing flags left and right and chasing people down from all parts of the field including Cassidy, Harris, Joseph and Jessie.
