The Lancashire Schools Finals day which took place at Fylde RFC today was a well organised Competition day and despite squally conditions some excellent Rugby was played, the skill and execution in the conditions was a joy to watch. There were some entertaining high scoring games up to the Under 16’s Final which resulted in a draw and a shared Trophy.
All involved are to be congratulated on staging this Annual event, the Schools Committee, Fylde RFC and the Manchester and District Referees Society and as one parent told me “Who wants to pay £84 for a ticket at Twickenham when you can watch this quality Rugby for 3 quid.”
