Farnham Rugby Club's Academy side produced a spirited second-half fightback against Tottonians on Sunday, eventually going down 29–19 despite a determined performance that saw them score three tries.

The match began with both teams observing a minute's silence in honour of the fallen on Remembrance Sunday.

Tottonians made the stronger start, crossing for their opening try within five minutes and dominating much of the first half. But Farnham showed their attacking potential when Will Phillips (10) collected a kick, dummied his way past two defenders and created space out wide for Captain Chris Engin (13) to dive over in the corner.

Trailing at half-time, Farnham emerged with renewed energy and purpose. A powerful driving maul put Tottonians under pressure, while a series of penalties and scrums gave the visitors opportunities deep inside opposition territory.

Their persistence paid off when Chris Engin crossed for his second try of the afternoon, with Will Phillips adding the conversion.
Farnham continued to battle until the final whistle, with Casper Dorian (7) adding a third try in the corner in the closing minutes to round off an encouraging second-half performance.

Although Tottonians took the victory, Farnham's determination and attacking ambition provided plenty of positives for the Academy side.
