Registration open for Rydal Penrhos U16 tournament
One of the most important dates on the Rydal Penrhos sporting calendar is set for a triumphant return later this year.
Competitive fixtures have resumed over the autumn term after COVID-19 restrictions were lifted, which has been a major benefit to our aspiring athletes and their development from an individual standpoint and as part of a team.
The school is delighted to announce that the Rydal Penrhos Rugby 7s Tournament will be taking place on Saturday 12 March 2022 from 9am-4pm on the stunning New Field site.
The day-long competition is set to feature a large number of schools and clubs from across North Wales and the North West for what is sure to be an exceptional showcase of talent and camaraderie.
This is the fourth time Rydal Penrhos has organised the event, which is held for U16 teams before many of them embark on senior and first-team rugby in the coming months.
Teams will be put into groups and following the opening games, they will then be divided into Cup, Plate, Bowl, Trophy and Shield categories depending on their placings in each pool.
This will be followed by an exciting knockout stage that will decide the overall winners in each category.
Last year’s event was cancelled due to COVID-19 health concerns. And staff will be taking every possible precaution to ensure the safety of everyone attending this spring.
A tuck shop will be available for refreshments all day. Those in attendance will also enjoy a lunchtime barbecue complete with vegan options that can be pre-ordered.
Accommodation is also available for teams looking for an overnight stay.
The cost to enter is £40 per team. Anyone requiring further information or to book your place, contact Ryan Kirby via email at RKirby@rydalpenrhos.com.
