Herts Sevens 2007

The Herts Girls Sevens took place yesterday at a Sunny Welwyn RFC. A total of 13 Under 17 teams and 12 Under 14 teams were in action on the day. Some teams had made round trips of up to 200 miles to take part, which meant that the quality of Rugby was extremely high, and the Winners of both the U17 Cup and U14 Cup will be amongst the favourites for next Saturday's National Sevens at Leighton Buzzard RFC.

The Winners of each of the Trophy's were as follows:
Under 17 Cup: Worcester
Under 17 Plate: Paviors
Under 17 Bowl: Reading
Under 14 Cup: Cramberleigh
Under 14 Plate: Welwyn
Under 14 Bowl: Reading

The Organisers wish to thank all the Players, Coaches and Supporters for their flexibility, especially in the U17 Section as game schedules and times moved forward (due to teams dropping out) then back (due to injuries) then forward again (due to teams electing not to play off for 3rd and 4th place).

Next Season the age bands move to U18 and U15 and the U15 Section will be played on Full Size pitches. We are therefore asking for Clubs in Hertfordshire with four pitches to volunteer to host this event in 2008.
