Eastern Province faced tough opposition in their final match at the Under-13 Coca-Cola Craven Week, when they played the Itec Blue Bulls at Hoërskool Rob Ferreira in White River on Friday morning.

The boys from Pretoria outscored the Port Elizabeth based side in the first half by four tries to one.

The Blue Bulls dominated up-front and showing an impressive attacking prowess out wide. The Blue Bulls’ attack was fantastic as they forced EP onto the back-foot and the rewards followed as they crossed the tryline four times in the first half.

Eastern Province did their best to force their way into the match, but their efforts were curtailed by the effective Blue Bulls defence, leaving them to settle for only one converted try in the first half and a 24 point deficit at the break.

Eastern Province tightened up their defence significantly in the second half as they limited the Blue Bulls to only one more try. The Port Elizabeth side managed to score a second try, as the game ended 38 – 14 in favour of the Blue Bulls.

Scorers:

Eastern Province (7) 14 – Tries: Larquin Goliath, Ethan Liberty. Conversions: Daniel Smith (2).

Itec Blue Bulls (31) 38 – Tries: Jooste Nel, Rolen Visagie, Chris Schoombee, Zandre Du Toit (2). Conversions: Jooste Nel (5).
