What a morning! There was a lot of excitement
building up to this and we had been working on sevens rugby during the week. The
boys need to think a lot more during sevens and cannot just put themselves on
their default setting. We started a little tentatively in our group and only
beat The Perse by two points (a missed conversion). However, we got into our
stride and managed to win the other pool matches quite convincingly against FKS
and St Cedd's. This put us in the semi-final against Felsted 'B' team. The 'B'
team battled well and played their hearts out, but we were just a little too
strong for them. This then put us into the final against a big Dame Bradbury's
side. However, Dame Bradbury's were unlucky as we had been improving every game
and getting more used to the style of sevens. An absolutely outstanding display
of rugby by the boys, even more impressive considering how tired they were,
meant that we came out convincing and deserved victors. A good day at the
office! Thank you to Mr Hays for organising the event, thank you to the parents
for their support and thank you to the boys for their unfailing enthusiasm and
effort.
