U16 Schools Plate Final: Loretto School v Linlithgow Academy – 4.30pm, DAM Health Stadium

The first game of the day at DAM Health Stadium saw Loretto School and Linlithgow Academy vie for the U16 Plate title.

The opening 15 minutes of the game were largely spent inside Loretto’s half, with Linlithgow pilling on the pressure in attack, but Loretto maintained a strong defence to thwart the Academy’s opportunities for a try.
