Paul Mills at Colchester writes :-
In a very competitive game of rugby played in excellent spirit, an under 21s team from Colchester took on their counterparts from Diss under lights at Mill Road on Wednesday December 20th.
Featuring many university returnees and some current players, this was an excellent opportunity for both sides to reconnect with their clubs and to renew old acquaintances. The final score of 17-14 to Colchester (home try scorers Ed Parry, Craig Tierney and Alex Peterson) is probably inconsequential taking into account the purpose of the game itself but it must be said that the skill set and commitment shown from both sides was of very high quality. Well done to all and a big thank you to the 3 officials for allowing an open and flowing game of rugby
