Math preview – 1st XV V Dorking

Dorking v Canterbury

Leading into the game last weekend we talked about creating rugby memories, and the best ones being when you win. I think the players put in a performance to be proud of and did just that. Across the team we raised the bar and the belief the lads showed to fight back from a considerable deficit is a marker of a strong team. It was also a herculean effort off the field by so many people to ensure the game was played and relocate everything necessary to the Langton 4G. Its only through the hedge but that doesn’t make it any easier!

Our challenge this week is to back up last week’s performance with an even better one against Dorking. Our focus is to keep building on our strengths and I have challenged the players to bring their own energy and focus. Dorking are also at the top end of the league, and after winning by a score in the final play of the game at Merton Lane I am looking forward to another close contest.

The Pilgrims are having a great season in their first year in Counties 2 Kent. They sit second in the league and have a top of the table clash with Sevenoaks 2’s and the Marine Travel ground this weekend. Kick off is at 3pm and if you want to see a great game of rugby, I can guarantee it will be worth a watch as two teams fight it out to be top of the pile
