Colchester Colts Academy team produced an imperious performance against a spirited Shelford team to qualify for the semi final of the Eastern Counties Cup. Colchester's dominance up front enabled the half backs to dictate the tempo and allowed Colchester to play the wide game on which they thrive. Tries came at regular intervals with Harvey 3, Olobooye 2, Peterson 2, Hinton, Cowley, Tierney, Palmer and Winright all registering scores with Harding and Williams adding conversations.
