With great weather and a fantastic atmosphere Service Minis travelled to Donaldson Park to take on their counterparts from Donaghadee in a series of matches across each age group. As this was the first fixture of the season for each group of minis it was eagerly anticipated.
With friends and family cheering them on from the sidelines, the boys and girls from both the mini rugby sections did fantastically and a great day was had by all. The levels of skill and commitment on show were fantastic and the minis provided some great entertainment for all the spectators.
Afterwards player’s coaches and spectators from both sides mingled in the clubhouse where refreshments and sandwiches were kindly provided by Donaghadee R.F.C.
In Touch Rugby would like to pay tribute to all the coaches from both sides who are unpaid volunteers and give up their time for the love of the game. Mini Rugby is vital to the continued development of Rugby in Ulster.
Donaghadee R.F.C youth rugby continues every Sunday from 2.30 -4.00 for boys and girls of all age groups at Donaldson Park.
Civil Service (NI) R.F.C. youth Rugby continues every Saturday 10-11.30 for boys and girls aged 5 and up at the Pavilion Stormont. Next up for the Service minis its Holywood at home on the 23rd October.
