U12 Rugby Sevens Tournament Report - Sunday 30 October 2011
To build on the success of the Walla Rugby sessions in Schools and Gala Days held throughout August & September, SA Rugby offered “Club Based Tackle Sessions” throughout October with the aim of attracting new players to the game whilst involving currently registered Under 12’s to build a friendly atmosphere.
Each local club had the opportunity to host one session a week for four weeks facilitated by S.A Rugby Development Staff with assistance from club coaches. The program concluded with an Under 12’s Sevens Tournament held at Dry Creek on Sunday 30th October.
The day was a success for the team involved with new and current players showing the skills they had learnt over the previous four weeks. The weather was brilliant and the event was well supported by all the parents that turned up to cheer on their team. Thank you to Peter Gilbert and his volunteers at North Torrens for running the canteen and all the helpers from NEDS who ran the BBQ.
The day would have not of been a success without the hard work of the following Development Officers- Nat, Jamie, Greg, Dylan, Rhys & Dean. Thank you to Jim Jones and the referees who made the games enjoyable and free flowing.
Games were played across field with 6 minute halves. Each team played three pool games before progressing to the relevant final based on their pool results.
