Determination Shines Despite the Scoreline

In a hard-fought match, Sedgefield fell to Gateshead with a final score of 7-39. Despite the margin, Sedgefield's performance was commendable and did not truly reflect their effort and determination on the field.

Gateshead played exceptionally well, showcasing skill and strategy that secured their victory. However, Sedgefield put up a strong fight, with several moments of promising play.

Kev Vaughan was rightly named Man of the Match for his standout performance, demonstrating leadership and skill throughout. On a lighter note, Ciaran Lines earned the title of Dick of the Day for his despicable "footballing" attempt at tripping an opponent.

Sedgefield faced a few challenges, including some yellow cards that impacted their momentum. While there were a few contentious decisions, the referee's rulings stood firm.

We extend our best wishes to Gateshead for a successful season and eagerly look forward to our next match against North Shields away.
