This past weekend, Union High School’s u/13A rugby team travelled to East London to participate in the 10th annual Grens Sports Festival.
This tour marked the start of a very busy rugby season and served as a great opportunity for Union’s youngsters to find their feet while playing competitive rugby against some of the best schools in East London.
After a lengthy bus ride on Friday, the group of exited rugby players faced off against Lilyfontein Primary in what proved to be a challenging encounter. The Union players played with determination and managed to win the encounter 26-5.
Saturday morning’s first fixture against George Randell Primary School was extremely physical and was unfortunately one step to far for the Union boys, who went down 12-24.
In the team’s last fixture of the festival, they found themselves facing a formidable Gonubie Primary School team. This match exceeded any and all expectation as the Union boys played exceptional rugby, punching way above their weight to win the match 31 – 12.
Congratulations, gents!
