We welcomed Barton RFC U7's to Battlestead Croft for the first time this Sunday . It turned out to be the perfect morning of kids rugby .
Burtons 18 kids made up 4 teams and Barton produced 2 strong teams .
With 3 pitches running , it was great to see the 6&7 year old's showing off their running , passing and tagging abilities . All teams worked on their passing by having to distribute the ball 3 times before they could touch down for a try , this also helped grow their teamworking skills .
Two games in , and all of the players had played the opposition teams , the coaches then decided to mix the teams up a little .
With 6 Barbarian like teams lined up , the final 10 minutes produced the most inclusive and teamwork driven performance we have seen all season .
All of the players left the session making new friends and creating a great atmosphere for future battles against our closest club , Barton RFC .
A great morning was had by all and we look forward to the return fixture at some point in the future .
