PANTHERS (U17's)  24 - 5 WEST BRIDGEFORD (U17's)

SEMI FINAL WIN FOR UNDER 17's

A strong first half performance and then some solid defensive work in the second period saw the Panthers win through to the final of the NLD Shield after a hard fought game against West Bridgford.

With both teams up for it the Chesterfield team stormed into a first half lead of
21 - 5 with tries from Jordan White, Paddy Weston and Jess Vardy. The dependable Sam Curry converted all three.

The second half saw West Bridgford rally and throw everything at Chesterfield.

Strong defensive play however kept them out and on a rare forage up field, a penalty kicked by Curry proved to be the only points of the half as Chesterfield ran out worthy winners.

Man of the match was Sam Curry.  



PANTHERS (U10's)  80 - 15 ROTHERHAM (U10's)

Chesterfield Panthers U10's celebrate their tournament success

The Panthers players soon put the disappointment of only being runners up in last weeks NLD Shield competition (pictured above) as they ran in 16 tries over the course of a two legged game against Rotherham.

Yet another strong performance from the rapidly developing squad saw tries came from Harvey Fletcher (5), Oliver Jenkins (6), Tom Hawkins (2), Jack Burton, Aiden Butler and Jack Bromley.
