CALLUM Butler’s try proved in vain for Ellingham & Ringwood as Hampshire One neighbours Fordingbridge claimed the bragging rights thanks to a convincing 39-13 victory.
Fordingbridge raced into a 16-0 lead at the break before Ellingham came back strongly through Butler’s touchdown and a conversion and penalty from Josh Butcher.
But Fordingbridge dominated the final quarter of the game to claim a bonus point victory and Ellingham’s only other score was a further penalty from Butcher.
