We took 10 players to this tournament which was well organised (except for parking) and enjoyed perfect weather.
Our first game was against Berkswell and Balsall and we made a fantastic start by beating them 7-2. Our scorers were: Adam Thompson; Zac Parker (2); Ben Hawkes; and Charlie Labbett (3)
Next we played Kenilworth Lions, always a strong team and were narrowly beaten 4-5 after some dubious decisions. Nevertheless our boys played really well the scorers being Oliver Mansell (2) and Charlie Labbett (2)
Finally we played Sillhillians in which game we maintained the highest standars of the season and ran out of time during a winning run to finish with a 4-4 draw. Our scorers were Zac Parker; Ben Hawkes; Charlie Labett and Oliver Mansell.
Had we won this last match we would have won the whole tournament but did magnificently to come a close second. Poor Rachel, just as she gets them playing really well they all leave her and move to the U8s.
A great end to the season! All players and parents offer thanks and congratulations to Rachel who took a bunch of kids who were a rabble and had no idea what rugby was about and turned them into a well organised winning team. Well done Rachel.
