On Thursday 8th of July the new image rugby team went
to compete in the Waveney Shield. This is a tournament for the top four teams in Suffolk
and the top four teams in Norfolk. The first part of the competition was in league form.
The other three teams in our league were St.Botolphs from Suffolk, and Gardboldisham
and Bressingham from Norfolk.
We won all three of the league matches, and so we went through to the semi-finals
against Stradbroke. This was the team that beat us 5-4 in the Suffolk final in May, so we
were out for revenge! We won the match comfortably and so we were through to the final!
Our opponents were Roydon, the winners of the Norfolk final, so we knew we were in for a
hard match. We went two tries down in three minutes but we didnt panic! By halftime
we were 3-2 up ,and we eventually cruised to victory 6-3.
Thanks to Dave Hearndon- Hall from Diss Rugby Club for organising the
event. We shall try to win it again next year!
