In their first national competition the Balearics Girls XV gained a well-earned fourth place in Cordoba over the weekend. They won the group match against Murcia by 3 points to 5. After a very equal first half neither team had scored but a penalty kick after the break put Murcia ahead. This spurred the Balearics team on and they scored a try which was enough for the win. The girls lost the next group match to a very strong and experienced Basque Country by 41 points to 5. This put them into the play-off match for third or fourth place against Andalusia on Sunday. Although they fought hard they lost this game by 39 points to 0 earning the fourth place trophy.
