Mud, mud and more mud!

What a great Festival that was for our U7's!

The weather did not dampen spirits of parents and coaches, and most importantly the kids showed that they love nothing more than rugby in the rain and mud with their mates!

We had in the region of 18 U7s turn out and for some this was their first exposure to 'competitive' rugby against other teams from Sheffield, Broughton Park, Bowdon and Didsbury TOC to name but a few.

That a couple of other teams were no shows allowed us to have 4 teams filling in for other fixtures which meant there was very little standing around and lots of rugby played. Washing machines will have taken a battering I imagine! :)

It was great to see the basics of running forward, passing backwards executed really weel by all teams but more importantly the game played in a great spirit with our rugby friends....the sportsmanship was of the highest order from every team!

Some photos of the day have been uploaded and the most important thing to take from them are the beaming smiles on the faces of the kids!

To finish, a message from one of the parents of our new players:

"Oliver had a great festival, given its only week 3 for im I think he now feels like a proper rugby lad!"

FANTASTIC!!
