Champions Bishop’s Stortford Women beat Clacton 52-0 to end Women’s NC 3 Midlands (East) season with 100% record

Bishop’s Stortford Women celebrated being crowned league champions by completing the season with a 100% record.

The side triumphed 52-0 at Clacton in their final game of the campaign to make it 12 wins out of 12 in Women’s NC 3 Midlands (East).

Captain Jasmin Bice got the first try under the posts and saw fly-half Rebekah Coppen add the extras.

Outside-centre Charlotte Wheeler and prop Jess Trim-Cain then both powered through gaps in the home team’s defence to add a try apiece, with Coppen converting one of them.

And Coppen successfully converted scores by No 8 Larissa Cushway and flanker Kiera Chadburn to make it 33-0 at the break.

Stortford continued to dominate after the restart and winger Ali Borman dotted down after some quick phase play.

A high tackle by a Clacton player resulted in a penalty which was taken quickly by Donna McDonald, who ran through the tiring defence to score under the posts. Coppen was successful with the boot.

Coppen then scored and converted a try of her own after some quick work at the breakdown resulted in Stortford moving the ball down the line.

Jess Trim-Cain was named forward of the match while Georgia Butler was chosen as back of the match.
