Olympian Tom Mitchell Leads Masterclass
On Friday our U16 and U18 Girls’ 7’s squads had the chance to be coached by 2 times Olympian Tom Mitchell! The England sweeper led a masterclass in which girls could test their understanding of the game as well as posing game related decision-making scenarios.
Subsequently, squads were able to test the techniques learned in an age grade round- robin tournament.
22 different schools entered producing 30 teams across the age ranges 14-18, a whopping 300 players! It certainly supports the claim that female rugby participation is increasing at great speed.
