Henry Moore edge close final to take Tag-Rugby title

Another glorious afternoon at the Harlow Rugby Club, welcomed back the top 15 teams from last week’s qualifiers. The teams split into 3 groups, playing a series of matches to a very high standard. Eventually, the top team from each of the groups along with the best runner-up, played out semi-finals, before Henry Moore 1 and Church Langley met in the finals. As you’d expect, after 100 matches, the standard f the final was incredible, with Henry Moore edging to a 3-2 victory.

As the trophy was presented, the teams gave thanks to our amazing referees who presided over the whole tournament with very few issues – thank you Luke, David, Gill, Kerry and Steve.
