York Under-13s powered their way to victory in their first ever youth age group tournament at Morley.

The York side swept all before them in all five round-robin matches.

York had a great start against Yorkshire plate winners Wetherby, the back line proving too quick to inspire a 30-5 success.

York continued to dominate their matches with a strong performance from the forwards and scrum half Ben Johnson.

Against Morley York put together some excellent tries including one won against the head in the scrum. The ball passed through every back's hands for Dan Barker to score in only his second outing.

This game also saw an excellent solo try from flanker Aron Robinson who ran 30 metres down the wing, York winning 35-5.

The next match was similarly impressive as both York wingers Robbie Cuthbertson and Tom Stancliffe continued their try frenzy in a 25-5 win over Yarnbury 25-5.

In the last game, York met Old Brodleians, also unbeaten. York won a much tighter game with two tries from outside centre George Elliot.

Tournament try-scorers were: Cuthbertson 6, Stancliffe 5, Elliot 5, Nick Speck 2, Robinson 1, Barker 1.
