A performance to be proud off at Coventrians
Captain Jack Sargeant’s Earlsdon RFC bounced back emphatically in their second league fixture, securing a dominant 52-7 win over Coventrians RFC. From the first whistle, Earlsdon took control of the game, showcasing their strength and cohesion in a performance that set the tone for the season ahead.

Deepinder Dyal marked his second league game for the club with a well-deserved try, while Jack Haywood was clinical, scoring twice and further adding to the quality of the performance.
Micky Moore, starting at scrum-half, was the glue that held everything together. His distribution and decision-making allowed the backs and forwards to play with a smooth, free-flowing rhythm that Coventrians simply couldn’t handle.
Man of the Match Sam Mauch put in a tireless shift, covering every blade of grass and tackling himself to exhaustion. His work rate and leadership were instrumental in Earlsdon’s commanding performance.
