WOW! What an amazing gala held at Haresfinch today, some amazing rugby played by all teams involved. Massive shout out to Paddy who organised such a great day with the added extra touches for the kids to work towards 👏🏻.
Our White Team took to the field first in this mornings festivals playing 5 great games and really working hard for each other in defence and attack. Amazing Effort Boys.

At the end of their festivals the Player of the Tournament was awarded to Apollo for his strong hard runs and great defensive work. What an amazing achievement Apollo we are all really proud of you and it was very well deserved.
They then chose 3 of our players Archie, Apollo and Archie to take part in the All Stars Game, this was chosen by the refs and the points added up everytime their names got put forward. A great way to finish the morning festivals and the kids being able to keep the All Star shirts.
Our Green Team festivals started at 2.30pm and after a slow start in the first game they soon got back to playing some great rugby.

Again two of our players Franky & Jacob were in the mix for player of the tournament with a special mention but they just missed out by a couple of votes but it’s good to see them up there competing with the rest.
The three players picked for All Stars were Franky, Jacob and Charlie.
Well done boys on working hard and getting that opportunity to play alongside some of the other kids you certainly did us all proud 💚🤍.
Fastest Player of the Race was awarded to our one and only Jack as he just went over for the winning title!
But all in all these kids have all been great they have definitely been challenged but they never gave up. It’s been a long day!
Lastly, we want to wish James a speedy recovery and we hope you’re feeling better soon mate.
Thanks to everyone for travelling down and supporting the boys as always.
