Well done to all the players, coaches and volunteers for all their hard work and last but not least to all the parents for their continued support. It was great to see all of our players enjoy themselves no matter where they finished and is testament to our inclusive fun approach to rugby at H&WRFC.
A special thank you goes to Uckfield for hosting a great tournament.
