08 Mar Year 10 Rugby Squad
Well done!
On Wednesday 6th March the Year 10 Rugby Squad attended the Essex Schools U-15 Seven’s Shield Tournament at Barking Rugby Club.
After two draws 14-14 against Sandon and then 7-7 against King Edward’s we beat Orsett Heath 14-0 after extra time to qualify for the final.
We again played Sandon who were last year’s winners. Despite our squad playing some fantastic attacking rugby coupled with fierce, organised defence, Sandon came out on top 12-5 in a very tight game that could have again gone to extra time.
The squad should be proud of their achievements of being Essex Runners Up. They were notified late of the entry and had just two sessions to prepare, they did themselves and the school proud.
My special thanks go to the lads who attended training but due to only squad sizes of twelve allowed, they didn’t make the squad on the day but helped those selected in training to prepare.
Congratulations to you all!

Pastoral Support Assistant – Year 11
