Bromley Festival - teaming up with Kings for Barbarians Teams 13th Oct

Great Sunday of rugby for the Tigers!

Southwark Tigers had 4 teams in action at the Bromley festival - U8s, U9s, U10 and U11s. Against all the big clubs - Whitgiftians, Elthamians, Sidcup, Bromley, Colfeans, Dunstonians etc - we did really well. We won more matches than we lost and I think James' U9s won 4 of his 5 matches. It was great to work with the coaches from Kings College Pirates and share players. Also well done to Elaine who reffed the youngest teams at a tournament. It was a longer festival than anticipated and we didn't get back until 3:45pm!

U12s - Ed and Cliff went to Elthamians for the Foxbury Festival, and despite being short of many experienced players left the tournament undefeated!

At home Freddie ran the coaching for the U13/14/15s - we had about 16 players turn up and be involved in a very productive training session.

Well done everybody.

Also a big hug to Mags who is recovering from knee surgery and will soon be back running the women and girls rugby at Tigers.
