The RC ‘t Gooi rugby players were clearly the strongest in the derby against RC Hilversum. After a 24-0 halftime score, it eventually became 43-7 for the Naarders. As a result, the rugby team recovered well after the first defeat of the season against RC Eemland last week.
‘t Gooi had always won the first four games of the season with large numbers. After the defeat against Eemland, the rugby players wanted to recover against fellow countryman Hilversum. That worked, because after fifteen minutes it was 5-0 for the team from Naarden.
