Army Women Beat Forces Rivals In Rugby League Clash
Watch: Highlights of the Army Women's win over the RAF/Navy women's hybrid team.
The Army Women's Rugby League team proved their dominance over the other services with a win in Warrington.
They scored three tries in each half against an RAF/Royal Navy hybrid team.
The match was played prior to the second senior men's match between the Army and the RAF.
The RAF/Navy team took an early lead which shocked many in the ground as the Army were heavy favourites.
Linda McClean's converted try was a deserved reward for the hybrid team's good early start.
However, the Army hit back with three first-half tries.
Ella Donnelly, Molly Kedraika and Elyschia Watson all got on the scoresheet and the conversion was good each time to give the Army an 18-6 half-time advantage.

Donnelly's second of the match and Kaiya Glynn's converted try meant the Army won by 30-6.
