On Sunday 5th October Tunbridge Juddians U10’s went to Foxbury to play in a rugby tournament.

Our first game was against Beckenham. We had a solid win of 6-0. Our next game was against Cranbrook, who defended well and the final score was 0-0. Our third game was against Sidcup, which we won 2-0. Our last group game was against Bromley, we drew 0-0, but this was enough to get to the cup final. It was against Westcombe Park.

The game was amazing and our defence was strong even though we were very close to our try line. The final score was 0-0, so the cup was shared.
