The Lions travelled to East Sussex to face Ditchling RFC in League Fixture.

The Lions lost several key players to the first team in selection, and travelled to Ditchling to carry on their League campaign. After having a couple of games with slow starts, it did not happen today.

With the Ditchling pack trying to dominate the breakdown area, they struggled with the Lions resistance, however the deadlock came when the Ditchling 10 chipped and the chase for the line was on. The Home side were up 1 try. An immediate response was required, and it came in the form of Edd Jones scooping the ball from his bootlaces and sprinting the 30 yards to the try line.

The Ditchling captain commented on the game being the most physical his team had played so far.
The final score 25-14. The better team won, and we look forward to their visit to Coolhurst.
