Maidstone Pumas 0 South Wales Warriors 55

Sunday 10th August 2008

It has been several years since the Maidstone Pumas last welcomed the South Wales Warriors to Kent. South Wales came to Aylesford Rugby Club ranked number 3 in the southern regional standings, having secured the South West conference title earlier in the week when Plymouth Admirals were unable to fulfil the final two fixtures of the season.

South Wales needed a win to maintain pressure upon Cambridgeshire Cats, who would lose the number rank if the Pumas scored more than 9 points or Watford Cheetahs did the same. More...

Sunday 3rd August 2008: Maidstone Pumas 0 London Cobras 88

Pumas Defeated

The Maidstone Pumas welcomed the arrival of the undefeated London Cobras to Aylesford Rugby Club. The Croydon based Cobras are ranked the Number 1 team in Division 2 having only conceded 9 points in the previous 7 games. This was an eagerly awaited match up to test the Pumas in what has been a good season for the mid Kent outfit.

The game started poorly for The Pumas as the first kick off was run back by Jeremy Reid, who was immediately tackled by 3 Cobras, one of which knocked the ball out of the grasp to cause a fumble. The Cobras struck two plays later as QB Jerome Allen found Emmanuel Mukoro in the end zone from 8 yards. Allen would go onto pass for 7 TD’s during the game. More...

On a pleasant summer’s day, The Maidstone Pumas travelled to Essex for the early kick off against conference rivals Essex Spartans.

Last weeks 16 heroesrsquo;s were boosted by the return of running back James Cherry, Defensive Back, Jeremy Reid and Defensive lineman Charlie Flynn. It was 20 players who warmed up prior to the game. More...

Maidstone Pumas 7 Watford Cheetahs 42

Sunday 6th July 2008

On what turned out to be a pretty miserable day weather and game wise, Maidstone Pumas travelled to leafy Watford, for the first of their two ‘out of conference’ games.

Watford Cheetahs is the new name of the old Chiltern club, who had changed their name in the previous off season to reflect the move to Watford.

Prior to the game, despite the efforts of the Pumas management, only 16 players showed up. The Pumas are injury ridden at the moment, with the latest casualty being wide receiver Richard Dowling, who had broken a bone in his left hand. More...
