CUSPO Rugby: only two points against a strong Volvera; French experience for female athletes; 40 Mixed Ability athletes in Casalbagliano
First setback for the university fifteen CUSPO Rugby who loses away 14 to 12 against the Volveraas was likely, given the well-organized team with a strong back line.
Great determination from CUSPO Rugby who held the reins of the match for almost the entire match. However, it was not possible to make the most of the superiority of the scrum package and close the match with the opportunities already had in the first half.
Comment Giancarlo Casarin: “Unfortunately, as often happens, due to factors such as the reaction of the opponents and a bit of physical decline a few minutes from the end, the goal was conceded which gave the victory to Volvera. Even if technically it is the result that decrees the success of a match, our boys should not blame themselves for anything. In fact, I congratulate them because they never give up and always give their all in matches and in training!”.

We will attempt the climb again next year, strengthened by greater experience and maturity on the platform.
On Sunday, however, the third Circuito Minions test took place in Legnano, with only two participants due to the flu: Davide Cellerino cat. Prime Lame ranks 6th and Tommaso Caniggia wins in the rookie category, with a victory in all three tests.
Teacher Cometti explains: “These circuits are promotional competitions that give even the youngest children the opportunity to compete with children of the same age from all over the north-west of Italy and with a good number of Swiss children. Our Tommaso has won the three tests carried out so far, he is the smallest Cussino who participates in these events and he certainly promises well!”.
