Match opportunity for U15s - and U12s!

There is going to be an tournament for U12 and U15 players at Welwyn on Sunday 27th April - and any U12s and U15s from across the county can take part (that is school years 5-10!).

U15s: With the top regional U15s away training the tournament is being organised specifically to give club U15 girls - who can normally miss-out on games at this time of year - a chance to play. A Hertfordshire team will be formed from any girls attending, and will play against similar combinations representing Eastern Counties, Kent, and Middlesex.

This is a great opportunity for any U15s, but most especially those who may not have played county rugby before and might like to get a taste for rugby at the next level. This will be the second time that a weekend like this has been arranged after a very successful afternoon in February, and based on that event I am certain that ANY of our U15s would be more than capable of holding their own - and really benefiting - from taking part.

If you are interested please contact the U15 county manager - Peter McCullough - at peter.mccullough@ntlworld.com. Teams will meet at 12.15 for a 1.00 kick-off.

U12s: On the same afternoon there will also be a U12 match between Hertfordshire and Eastern Counties. If you are interested in playing in this please let John Birch know asap.

There will also be a U12 event at the Dorking Sevens on 11th May... though in that case it clashes with Herts Sevens. However, HYG is a U11 event so there may be enough girls left from Year 7s to form a team - and as our U18s are going pooled transport should be possible. So if you can play in this please let John know.
