Farnham U16 Girls returned to winning ways in this season’s HOB Cup with a 46-10 victory over the combined forces of Portsmouth, US Portsmouth and Petersfield.

Following a narrow defeat to Basingstoke in the previous round of matches, Farnham began the game strongly and were rewarded for their endeavour with a try from Rose C. That score was converted by Eva J who added a second try midway through the half.

Lara S extended Farnham’s advantage following a great steal in the shadow of the home team’s posts with Eva J once again adding the extras.

Daisy M was the next to cross after a great break from Lara S with Eva J once again on target with the conversion.

But Farnham’s all-action approach took its toll with ‘Portsfield’ bravely battling back into the contest with two well-worked tries of their own before the break.

A refreshed Farnham took the attack to their rivals once again in the second half with the elusive Amelie M bagging a rapid-fire hat-trick before Eva W powered over under the posts to set the seal on the win.
