Michael and Ronan both started for Glasgow Warriors Whites in their first game v Newcastle Falcons 2, Michael at Loosehead and Ronan at 10.
The boys were off to a shaky start and struggled to get any flow into a stop start game that suited the bigger pack of the Skye team. Strong defence lead by Erlend Gilmore and Alan Pirie prevented Skye from scoring a try. Forcing them to eventually choose to kick the points and take a 3-0 lead after 10 minutes.
Conditions were fair with light rain throughout making the ball and surface greasy. The quality of both teams was evident from the start with fast dynamic play from the outset. Edinburgh were first off the mark with a converted try 9 minutes in.
Orkney RFC are delighted that two of the boys’ under 16s team are representing Glasgow Warriors Whites this weekend.
Michael Scarth and Ronan Hamilton will be playing against Edinburgh Gunners Rugby at the Hive Stadium at 1pm on Sunday. This is a huge honour for both boys and everyone at ORFC is very proud of what they have achieved!

Many Thanks Erland Drever |
