Horsham Lionesses record convincing win in long-awaited homecoming

Running out with some familiar faces were some ladies new to rugby, some ladies transitioned up from the junior side, and the refreshed coaching line up.

The pack put in a solid performance, making space for the home side to score a brace of tries. Kate Leyshon's trusty boot didn't let the side down with some strong conversions.
Camberley fought back valiantly despite the heat, contesting every ruck and jackling the ball, and taking an opportunity to a score a try just before the half-time whistle when the Lionesses momentarily let their guard down.
The final score was 73-5 to the home side, with tries from Jade Stocker, Maddie Matthews, Pip Softley, Charlie Clark, Ellie Mayes and Jody Morris-Jones.
