Rugby triumph - well done Hackney RFC

Wow what a brilliant day we had!

The 2nd Matt Elliott Memorial Cup was very well attended and everyone threw themselves into the matches - starting out with the newly formes Gladies - ladies teams not to be argued with. Look out boys!

Despite the rock hard pitch, delivering many scrapes, scratches cuts and bruises, the play was entertaining and riveting to watch.

Well done all the lads and lasses who played, and also to the gangs of supporters cheering from the sidelines. Lovely to see all the new little people too - quite a creche we've got there. ?Maybe soon enough for a toddlers team at this rate!

It was lovely to move on to the Marina bar later, and HUGE thanks to Roy and his team for putting on such a lovely supper - perfect.

Thank you Hackney for a memorable day

Will let you know what funds were raised once I hear from the club ...... meanwhile, the travellers are on their way (having JUST caught their flight by the skin of their teeth!) and have settled into their first campsite - Walking starts tomorrow, so will wait for news and keep you posted.
