Chosen were made to work really hard for this victory with 3 tries coming in the second half

On a bright sunny afternoon and with the pitch in good condition following the recent heavy rain, Chosen had first use of the Brookfield Road slope but it took them ten minutes to open the scoring with a try from winger Will Allenby converted by Andy King.

Although enjoying the lion's share of possession and territory Chosen were denied a further score by resolute Berry Hill defence until they finally added a second try by centre Tom Darby, again converted by King for a 14-0 half time lead.

Three minutes into the second half Chosen added their third try, a penalty try awarded after the visitors collapsed a forward drive just inches from the line.

Berry Hill replied with a converted try of their own after 45 minutes but prop Rowan Mullis charged over for Chosen's bonus point try converted by King

With injury time being played flanker Zac Taylor crossed for try number five after he sprinted away from a scrum some fifteen metres out with King adding the conversion to end the match.
