N2E and C3K victories on Saturday. NCC progress for TJs Academy and U16 league win on Sunday make it a special TJ weekend
TJs took on Worthing at The Slade on Saturday and came away with another maximum points 45-17 win to keep them clear at the top of N2E. Seven tries scored by Harrison Sims (2), Sam Blade, Shadyn Osgood, Tom Kendrick, Bobby Bratten and Duncan Tout saw a 17-12 half time lead converted into a confident win. Sam Evans and Josh Tusler added 5 conversions to boot.
TJs are 6 points clear of Barnes and with a game in hand. Barnes were pushed all the way by Sevenoaks on Saturday as they trailed 5-10 at the break before edging clear at 20-10. A late converted try by Oaks gave them a glimmer of hope but Barnes clung on.
Third placed Dorking are 8 points back but with a game in hand on TJs and they too had to dig deep in a 13 try thriller at BSE. Dorking scored in the final minute to make it 42-41 and the conversion won the game 42-43.
Canterbury beat Guernsey 24-15 and TJs head to play next Saturday. Henley saw off Oxford Harlequins 17-12, Colchester lost out 39-12 at Old Albanians and Combe beat Havant 34-20
In Counties 3 Kent TJs 2s kept an iron grip on top spot with a 57-7 home win over Gravesend. The result keeps TJs at the top of the table and 10 points clear of Sittingbourne
On Sunday the TJs Academy headed to Wasps FC for their National Colts Cup tie and came away with a thrilling 19-46 win to progress. TJs led 7-19 at half time and extended that lead early in the second half. Two yellow cards for TJs saw Wasps start to peg them back but TJs finished strongly to secure an impressive win
