2009-2010 Results:
Birmingham Exiles U14’s 47 - 46 Spartans U14’s
Yet another fine performance from the Exiles under 14’s side saw them run out eventual winners by one point in a super game of flowing intense rugby. The Spartans team should hold their heads up after giving a great performance with the Exiles scoring in the final minute of play to take the spoils. Some fine running from Michael Rowe and George Carlton scoring tries with Michael converting all but one, some super cover tackling by the Exiles in particular Alex Gibson and Thomas Gilfoyle showing great carrying of the ball. All round a great team performance with Spartans providing some excellent play to make this one of the games of the season to watch with both teams showing great attacking flair and open rugby. Well done to both teams on a great game.
Sunday 24th January 2010: Exiles U14 67 - 36 Aston Old Ed’s U14
A very enjoyable game to watch. Great rugby end to end stuff, with both sides competing to the very end. The first half was hard fought, the Exiles playing uphill with the sun in their eyes saw Aston Old Ed’s outscoring Exiles to take the lead 25-14 at half time with their number 10 running the show, both teams being fairly evenly matched but some fantastic teamwork, hard tackling from all of the Exiles in the second half saw Exiles fight back to win, the pack turning the power play on to provide good ball with the nine, ten, twelve axis really firing to score some great tries and provide quick ball to enable the winger to score along with some hard work in defence from all of the Exiles preventing Aston from scoring more. The whole team deserve a huge well done for playing a great game and a big thanks to Aston Old Ed’s for the game.
2008-2009 Results:
Sunday 5th April: Exiles 36 - 14 Birmingham and Solihull
Sunday 8th March: Handsworth 17 - 15 Exiles
Although Handsworth had one player more than Exiles, that did not dampen the spirits of the team. Within 70 seconds of the first half, Exiles were leading by 5 points thanks to an amazing run from Leon Williams during the first play. Jordan Pecheur, although missing the conversions, made up for it with a try of his own. Even with a few high-tackles being thrown at him he still managed to pull through and score. After Handsworth had scored two tries one after another, a last desperate attempt from both Dylan Baker and Brandon Patterson got the team the last try of the match. It was Dylans chance to take the conversion but it was at an extremely awkward angle and was missed. Both teams gave it their all and look forward to a return match at the Exiles ground.

2007-2008 Results:
Sunday 13th April: Exiles 19 - 24 Handsworth
An excellent team performance showed progression against a more experienced side. Captain Jack led the side in absence of Peter and showed good leadership in ordering his team to provide effort and commitment. The boys did not let him down and stuck at to the very end, where Handsworth scored in the last second to go into the lead. An excellent performance by Kieran and tries scored by Dante and Gavin. Credit to all the team who will look forward to the return match on Presidents Day!
Sunday 30th March - Exiles 54 - 19 Yardley and District
