Coalville 24pts v Lutterworth  19pts 

Coalville kick off the game and Jamie Robinson catches and take the ball to the 10 yard line where Lutterworth ruck over and Adam Fisher gives the backs an early touch and Jordan Tebb is held in midfield.  Coalville get the chance to attack and they take the ball into the Lutterworth 22 only for Lutterworth full back Jake Watts to kick clear. Coalville keep up the pressure though and when they work an overlap from the centre of the pitch the winger outstrips the Lutterworth defence toscore near the posts and they convert the try to give them selves a 7-0 lead.
This give the home side some confidence and from the kick they keep possession and again take the ball into the Lutterworth half good tackling from forwards Sam Huckerby, Sam Weatherall and Chris Gutteridge prevent Caolville stretching their lead further. Finally though the pressure tells and again Coalville create an over lap and this time score under the posts only to miss the conversion. This spurs Lutterworth on and from a good spell of possession centres Jordan Tebb and Uldis Krievs carry the ball into the Coalville half and when Chris Jackson picks up and passes to Sam Huckerby the Lutterworth forward powers over the line and Uldis Krievs converts to cut the home teams lead. Coalville come straight back at Lutterworth but the knock the ball on and from the scrum fly half Adam Fisher kicks poorly away, but the bounce goes past the Caolville full back and Lutterworth no. 8 Chris Gutteridge gets to the ball first and hacks on then again at the half way line and the Coalville 22 he hacks on and just as he tries to pick up and put down he is tackled by two Coalville defenders.  However the ball breaks to centre Jordan Tebb who was following up for an easy try and when Uldis Krievs converts from out mwide Lutterworth edge into the lead.

Half Time Coalville 12 Lutterworth 14

Coalville kick off and Lutterworths Jamie Robinson catches the ball cleanly and drives back to the half way line, but the ball is knocked on and Coalville get the set scrum to set up an attacking option and test the lutterworth defence.  Some good tackling especially by centre Jordan Tebb stops Coalville on the Lutterworth 10 yard line. The constant Coalville pressure pays off when they are first held up on the Lutterworth line but recycle the ball and dive over to edge into the lead.  Lutterworth go on the offensive from the kick off and when Sam Weatherall breaks from a maul and is held up on the Coalville line it looks like Lutterworth must score but Coalville steal the ball and clear to the 22 yard line. But again the pressure pays off and when Jamie Robinson picks up and passes to Sam Huckerby the forward powers his way over to put Lutterworth back in front.  Coalville refuse to give in and with time running out they break through the Lutterworth defence to again take the lead and when Lutterworth get the ball from the kick their forwards recycle the ball and Josh Shevas passes to Sam Weatherall who sets off from just inside his own half and after going past the full back is tackled by a last ditch covering forward.  He off loads in the tackle to Sam Huckerby who drives over the line only to be judged out of play before he grounds the ball and before Lutterworth can gat the ball back from the 22 yard drop out the final whistle goes.
