This week we took some of our year 10 boys to Blundell’s to compete in the annual Exeter and East Devon Rugby 7s tournament where we were in a group against some very competitive schools. The boys showed a really good account of themselves throughout the whole afternoon.
The first group game was against Clyst Vale which saw us narrowly defeated 14-7 in which the boys felt was a very winnable game.
However, in the second game, we bounced back to a 14-7 win against Kings Ottery.
Then in the third saw us against our rivals Uffculme which was a lot more of fast flowing game of rugby but we were beaten by a well drilled team. Final score 26-14.
After a long wait for Exmouth to catch up with their fixtures after arriving late, the boys got cold and lost their focus a little. A slow start saw us chasing the game, but we finished strong in the second half. Final score was a 21-7 defeat.
Results may have not gone our way, but each of them were brilliant!
