The Orlando men played there final game of the season. Winning over the St Petes Pelicans 14-7. It was a very loose game with no scoring in the first half. Man of the Match Shane Ferrelli who had some monster runs, attacking the Pelicans back line with grit and determination.
We would like to thank Nacho for refereeing the match, as there were some complications with the ref scheduling for our game. All in all a good positive turn around for the Orlando Mens side in the final games of the season. We are going to be training throughout the summer once a week and also playing touch on Sundays. We will keep you posted on details.
Thanks
