The Year 7 rugby team recently took part in the annual Berkshire rugby tournament.
In the first pool games we were up against three new teams. We took the challenge head on and after some brilliant tackling, running and superb handling skills we came out on top of the group with 3 wins from 3.

Win v Maiden Erlegh 15-10
Win v Furze Platt 15-5
Win v Forest B 25-5

It was a fantastic team effort which gave us much confidence for the next pooled games in which we would go up against equally matched teams.

We battled hard and ended with a win, a draw and a loss. It was a close set of games, and the games where we drew and lost two games that could have gone either way.

Win v Trinity 20-0
Draw v Reading Blue Coat School 10-10
Loss v Highdown 5-10

It was a huge team effort and a great way to finish the season. Well done to all boys who played in the team and to those who contributed and took part in the training sessions.

A big thank you also goes out to Mr Norman whose help was much appreciated this year!
