Denton's finest battled it out at the annual South Downs Tag-Rugby Festival at Eastbourne Rugby Club on Thursday amidst brilliant sunshine and artic winds. The competition was fast and furious and we began against the mighty Ocklynge; the final score was 5-5 although we were extremely unlucky not to win. Next we faced The Haven and we played superbly well, winning 5-3. Our final group game was against Lewes Old Grammer who ran out worthy winners at 4-2, which meant we finished 2nd in the group and so booked a semi-final showdown against Stone Cross. This game was an absolute cracker, but unfortunately a last minute try from Stone Cross meant we lost 4-3.
 
It was a fantastic tournament with fantastic support from parents - for both the players and the referees! A big well done to all that took part.
