RFUW HQ are reminding clubs about the two great "end of season" competitions coming up.
April 29th sees the first ever official "Regional 10s" tournaments. Confusingly by "Region" they mean the RFU, not RFUW, region so our local event is the "London North 10s" at Hemel.
In addition clubs are not restricted to play in their "local" 10s but can enter ANY tournament, perhaps treating it as a weekend tour or just a chance to play against some new faces. The East Midlands 10s at Aylestone St James, for example, is a quite accessible alternative for some Hertfordshire sides.
The winners of each event will play off for the national title on 13th May.
Which brings us to the second big day - the National Sevens, this year at Leighton Buzzard in Bedfordshire on 26th and 27th May. The entry for junior teams for this event can be a bit disappointing sometimes - Herts 7s (the weekend before) will probably have more teams in it - and this may be because the line-up can appear a bit... intimidating.
But fact is that its a great day out anyway, and as its on our doorstep there is no reasonable excuse for not giving it a go. So go on - enter the Nationals and end your season in a memorable way!
