There were no men’s matches in the Central Coast rugby comp on July 15, but the weekend saw some top action in the Women’s 10s competition.
Six matches played on the day formed Rounds 21 and 22 of the competition.
Avoca Beach secured a 27-5 victory over Terrigal, only to then be defeated by The Lakes 26-17.
The win has more or less secured The Lakes a finals position.
Hornsby won both its matches, defeating Woy Woy 51-0 and Warnervale 40-5.
This has greatly increased Hornsby’s chances of making the finals, with a race underway between The Razorbacks, Hornsby and Warnervale for fourth spot on the points ladder.
Meanwhile, Terrigal has retained its first position on the competition ladder despite losing to Avoca Beach, with a 67-7 victory over Woy Woy later in the day keeping Terrigal in top spot.
This Saturday, June 22, will see The Lakes and Hornsby clash at Gosford Showground, Avoca Beach host Woy Woy and Warnervale take Terrigal at Woongarrah Oval.
This Saturday will also see Round 3 of the Premier 1 comp.
The match of the day will see Warnervale and Terrigal clash at Woongarrah Sports Field.
Both teams are coming off big wins in their last outings two weeks ago so should be primed for a classic encounter.
Terrigal is currently placed in second spot on the ladder and is keen to keep in touch with leading team Avoca Beach.
Warnervale is in fifth position and will be hoping to keep clear of the teams behind and hopefully climb higher on the ladder.
Warnervale will be at home which is a huge plus.
The Lakes will travel to Gosford Rugby Field at the Showground to meet Gosford.
Despite having the home team advantage, Gosford hasn’t played for over two weeks with a bye and then the wet weather general bye last Saturday.
The Lakes have had a frustrating season but are tough opponents and cannot be taken lightly.
Gosford will be keen to get the win and to maintain its fourth position on the competition ladder.
Woy Woy and Avoca Beach will meet at Heazlett Park in a match which should see the home team record a comfortable victory.
Avoca Beach remains undefeated in the competition and will also have the home-team advantage, so things won’t be easy for the visitors.
Lake Macquarie will travel to Ourimbah Rugby Park to meet the Razorbacks, who are favoured for the win.
Lake Macquarie are yet to record a victory this season and going up against the third-placed team in the competition won’t be easy.
In the President’s Cup, The Bay will travel to meet Avoca Beach, Gosford/Kariong will host the Razorbacks and Warnervale and Terrigal will play at Woongarrah Oval.
