Sainsbury's School Games Tag Rugby tournaments

Following the Sainbury's School Games football tournament last week, Oakwood sent a Y4 and a Y6 Tag-rugby team to Test Park for a boys and girls mixed tag rugby tournament.

It was the first time either of the sets of players had played in rugby matches for school so it promised to be an exciting day.

The Y4 team  made a great start to the tournament drawing one and winning all the other games in their group - meaning they qualified for the semi-finals. Springhill proved to be a tough game but Oakwood came out on top with a couple of fantastic tries. Oakwood were then drawn against Fairisle in the final which turned out to be a high scoring game, with Oakwood winning 5-3.

The Y6 team made an even better start by winning all of their group games and flying into the semi final where they met St Marks who they had already beaten in the group stage. Oakwood triumphed again making their way to the final with a perfect record. The final proved to be a very impressive game with the teams trading tries, Bassett Green did however pull ahead and Oakwood ran out of time losing 4-5.

Well done to both teams who represented Oakwood so well.
