Wildcats 2011-12 season – Act 1

Beren — Tue, 08 Nov 2011 13:53:55 +0000

August 2011 : A deserted Meyrin Sports Centre, sport has been replaced by the summer holidays…. But who is that over there? A group of women bonded together by a passion for rugby…The wildcats are motivated and ready for a promising season together.
After a difficult year for the RC CMSG women Rugby team, hit by injury and a lack of players, the Wildcats are glad to welcome some new and talented players!!! They will complement an existing solid core of experienced players.
Thanks to a great coach and positive trainings sessions, good results soon show and a new team is being built step by step!! The first victory against the Basel Birds, encourages everybody! But the best is yet to come!! At Neuchatel, the Wildcats are facing a well-motivated and powerful team. The game is hard but after several wonderful tries, transformations and scrums, the Wildcats achieve a resounding victory and are overjoyed with their game. The coach is ecstatic!!!!
The Wildcats have a home match against the Luzern Dangels. We play hard, but we lose to a strong team. A close match the next week narrowly won by the Bern Red Devils. Let’s forget those previous 2 games and congratulate the Wildcats for their great victory in Konstanz. It is a really close game; two teams at a similar level, defending furiously. Only one try scored from each team, but the Wildcats transformed theirs to win by 2 points. A victory 7-5; happily celebrated at the Clubhouse.
Saturday, October 22th: Last game of the championship before the winter break. An opportunity for the Wildcats to show what they can do. Last year we forfeited against Zurich because of a lack of players. Today, the Wildcats face Zurich with 17 players on their side!!! They play the highest level of rugby seen for a long time, leading the game and the score by playing with real team spirit and a lot of motivation. A large crowd of supporters were impressed by the standard of play and the Wildcats spirit certainly surprised the Zurich team. Unfortunately a try scored during the last minute by Zurich gave them a 3 point win. Despite the result, the girls of the RC CMSG are happy about the final result which augurs well for the second part of the season!!!
Wild celebrations followed once more at the club house!!!
Never forget this: the Wildcats are not only a team but a family made of friends and women who love being together, help each other, train and party TOGETHER!!!!
The Wildcats have arrived so watch out!!!
Well done girls !
Well done and Thankyou Chap !
Thanks to our back up coaches !
And most importantly, don’t forget ‘together’ !

First win in Zurich for 18 years!

Beren — Thu, 29 Apr 2010 10:33:33 +0000

RC CMSG pulled off a legendary 22-14 win this weekend in Zürich. The club had not won there for 18 years!

Two first half Emmanuel Florstan tries saw RC CMSG on their way to win at the Allmend, along with a Rodrigo Sanchez Panizza’s second half score.

The game started with Zurich’s battling forwards taking the pressure right to the CMSG line, and plowing over for a third minute try. RC CMSG regrouped, and worked their way upfield for Florestan’s first score in the corner, quickly followed by another.

An even and good spirited game, the second half saw an interception by winger Mikael Cadet, who offloaded 10m before the line to scrum half Fabien Vaudant, who in turn flicked it to Sanchez Panizza who scored under the posts.

The game was marked by excellent handling on behalf of the CMSG backs, Marc Escudié at 10 leading the boat, with centres Gabe Wills and Marco Bambace showing off their excellent skills at pace.

Zurich’s replying try came all too late, and CMSG came away smiling from this game, having ensure their place in Switzerland’s top flight!

Now on to Hermance on sunday 2nd of May for the final league game. Kick off at 2pm.

In the weekends other game, RC CMSG II went to Palézieux to take on RC Haute-Broye, a young and skilful team. A strong show by RC CMSG forwards, and two tries by prop Ali Day meant that CMSG II came away high and dry 22-8, and a bonus point in the bag!
