Southwold RFC Charity Boxing Day Game.

Raises over £500 for charity

A good crowd were treated to an entertaining Charity rugby match on a balmy Boxing Day on Southwold Common.

The Under 30s began the game by fizzing the ball around the pitch, scoring free-flowing tries at will before Phil Anthony, the eagle-eyed referee picked up on their numerous errors, chief of which was to run far too much for the Overs liking.

The Overs started to exert their strength and experience, and played champagne rugby in a ten yard corridor of opportunity. The Under 30s defended well, but after consultation with the Stephenson scoring system, it was found that the Over 30s had once again vanquished the valiant Under 30s side.

More importantly the day raised over £500 pounds in memory of ex-player, Glynn Alexander, the sum being donated to Leukaemia Research. A big thank you to Piers and Buster as well as all the players and supporters of Southwold RFC.
