On a cold but fiercely competitive Wednesday, November evening (15th), 11 Year 7 and 8 students made the trip to the Darlington Mowden Park Arena to compete in the U13's County Durham RFU Plate Tournament.
The girls, who hadn't even played together properly as a team before, headed into the competition not knowing what was ahead them, or even the strengths of any opposition, however, exceeded any expectations by winning the tournament altogether.
A comprehensive 6-0 win in the first game, followed by a 5-0 in the second, was finished off with a brilliant display from both teams in the final game, with a narrow 10-7 victory against our opponents, to grant Team Teesdale the plaudits and the trophy to make the trip home a successful one.
Well done girls!
