Foyle and Londonderry College, winners of the 2007 Girls Schools Cup

 

GIRLS SCHOOLS CUP 2007/08

Last season Schools Cup saw over 40 Schools take part from all over the Province, double that of the previous year. The Final was played at Ravenhill against Antrim Grammer and Foyle and Londonderry College. Congratulations to Foyle and Londonderry College who picked up the trophy after a very closely fought final.

WHAT'S IT ABOUT?

Women’s Rugby has developed into one of the fastest growing sports in the country. Over the last few years Tag Rugby has been introduced to numerous Schools around the Province.  Due to the continued growth and success of Tag Rugby in the secondary schools, a “Girls Schools Rugby Initiative” was proposed to link in with this previous Scheme. This competition will involve school areas in Ulster that will participate in the Tag Rugby Programme as well as well as schools that have not had the opportunity to participate in previous I.R.F.U Schemes.

WHY GET INVOLVED?

Girls Schools Rugby:
· is a fast and exciting non contact game of Touch Rugby, encouraging the development of running, balancing and handling   skills.
· is a very flexible sport that can be played by any number of players and the pitch can be increased and reduced   accordingly
· can be played on a variety of surfaces.

Your school has the chance to be part of the ‘Girls Schools Cup’ in the Province, so go on give it a go!!
