The Under 16s chose to turn their Sussex Division 1 fixture with Jersey into an away (and ‘overseas’) fixture and were rewarded with a great weekend of rugby and the usual tour-filled nonsense.....

Huge thanks go to both Michelle and Ali for putting together such a great weekend to show that rugby is clearly more important than trivial matters such as GCSE revision.
