Following a week full of rain the home friendly v Syston on the grass was touch and go. The match went ahead against the odds with the ball more like a bar of soap, but both sides doing their best! The first half finished with Forest 5 nil up. The second half saw Syston running in 2 tries and converting both before the ref sensibly called it a day 15 minuets early as conditions were getting dangerous for the players as pitch conditions deteriorated.
Sam Brown being the only try scorer for Forest.
