Team Bath head into winter BUCS Super Rugby break on frustrating note after tough second half at Hartpury

Team Bath go into the Christmas break sitting sixth in the 2021-22 BUCS Super Rugby league table after suffering defeat at local rivals Hartpury in their final game of the calendar year.

The Rengen-sponsored men’s 1st XV went into the match off the back of an excellent win over Loughborough and the first half proved to be tightly contested, with the visitors narrowly trailing 14-10 at the interval.

However, the game got away from them during a tough second half as Hartpury ran in five further tries, all converted, to Team Bath’s one to secure a 49-15 victory.

It was a frustrating finish to 2021 for Team Bath but they will be looking to start the second half of the season strongly in front of their home fans when they welcome Cardiff to the Team Bath Sports Training Village on Wednesday 26th January. Kick-off is 6.30pm and admission is free to spectators.
