Arriving in Ellon, we were informed Ellon only had 11 players for the match. So we played 11 a side. The guys did very well, considering the game had changed. With Mackie getting off to a quick start scoring two quick tries by Matthew and Fraser. Ellon came back with a try of their own due to Mackie not keeping their defensive shape.

But the boys responded really well scoring 3 more tries before half time. Charlie, Fraser and Connor (getting his first ever try).

At half time, Robbie and Connor stepped up and played for Ellon so that it was 12 a side.
There was some great interplay from Mackie with try of the season so far scored after a lovely chip through by Seb and Logan dotting it down. Logan and Ethan got a further try a piece.

Players of the match were Seb and Logan (half backs) playing brilliantly together.
Special mentions go to Kamsi, Connor and Nico for great play in their early rugby careers.
Final score Mackie 48 Ellon 38
