The City of Derry club have been making a big effort to boost their underage regime and introduce more young players to the game. They sent an Under 20 team down to Rainey in midweek before Christmas for a friendly fixture and while they fought well throughout, Rainey were just too good for them, winning 52-0. Several of the Rainey side have sampled AIL rugby and were simply too big for the visitors up front. The likes of Jack McIntosh and Calum Smyth, a try scorer on his return from injury, Neal Hastings and Peter Browne stood out in the pack, while half-backs Ben McCloskey and Gareth Hall combined well to bring their threequarters into the plcture at every opportunity.
