A Ladysmith junior rugby player crashes into the Brentwood defence en route to their win in Ladymith on April 19.

It wasn’t pretty according to coach Kyle MacDonald, but the junior LSS rugby team notched its first win.The marker came on Tuesday, April 19, against Brentwood’s B team.MacDonald said despite the seven-tries-to-two win, he was expecting his side to perform better.“It was a pretty scrambly game,” said MacDonald. “It didn’t have a lot of structure to it.“It wasn’t a classic.”MacDonald noticed a major improvement in the team when they played Shawnigan, but said the juniors played down instead of up when facing Brentwood.“Once we play a decent team, then we get a better indication of whether we are improving.”The forward pack and the back line are showing there is a lot of potential and swapping a few players to different positions has strengthened some softer points in their play.The juniors also played Wellington on April 21. The juniors play Vanier from Countenay away this week.
