There was double Dumfries and Galloway delight on rugby’s Silver Saturday at Murrayfield. Wigtownshire Ladies won the Women’s Shield, with Annan Warriors claiming the Women’s Plate. Wigtownshire achieved their Shield success on the main pitch at Scottish Gas Murrayfield, seeing off Greenock Wanderers 37-17. They took the lead with a penalty before Laura McNeil added an unconverted try. Greenock responded with two tries, the second of which was converted, to go 12-8 in front. But Isla Campbell’s try, converted by Sophie Mann, put Wigtownshire back in front, further tries from Niamh Wilson and Amy McNeil seeing them lead 25-12 at the break. They kept up the pressure when Carla Campbell scored the first try of the second period, Wilson’s try being converted by Mann taking their lead to 37-12. Greenock did add one more try but it wasn’t enough to deny Wigtownshire a well-deserved success. Annan defeated Garioch’s second XV 39-24 at The Hive to bring the trophy back to Violetbank. They opened the scoring after just a minute through Nicole Jancey’s try, although it was unconverted. Garioch drew level and then went 12-5 ahead but Annan rallied just before the break, Kayleigh Warrick scoring a try before Kirsty Barlow added another, Malvina McGeoch converting to put them 17-12 up at the interval.

But a second try from Barlow swung the momentum back in Annan’s favour, Jane Haren rounding off the scoring to seal the trophy for Annan.
