Y6 – District Tag Rugby

 

On Wednesday 24^th April the District Tag Rugby tournament for years 5 and 6 was held at Hertford Rugby Club. In contrast with previous years the weather was warm and sunny - this is possibly a first for this tournament.

 

The Y6 team had seven games in total, with the games being nine-a-side and 10 minutes each. Christchurch brought a squad of 14 to the tournament.

 

The children represented the school admirably, scoring some excellent team tries with the ball being passed around nearly the whole team before a successful score, coupled with some dazzling individual tries. With some strong opposition, Y6 fought through to finish 7th overall.

 

Many thanks to the referees and organisers who put on a splendid event. We wish Morgans and Abel Smith the best of luck as they go on to represent the district at the County competition.
