North Dorset Touch Rugby kicked off on Friday night, with the mixed youth game starting ND Green v ND Multicolours. Players from u13s to u16s, with both boys and girls taking part. The game had many senior players watching and scouting the future of North Dorset rugby.

After the youth’s game and massive round of applause had finished the senior section got down to playing. 

 

Saxons lost to Romans 3 - 2 and Celts roared to a 4 -0 lead before the Normans started to claw their way back. Time wasn't on the Normans side and Celts ran out 4 - 2 winners. In the next round of matches Celts found their stride and dismantled the Saxons 13 - 5. In the other game with 1-minute left Jonathan Hooper scored what looked to be the winning try for the Normans which put them 4 - 3 up. However, Sean Perry had other ideas, seconds after the restart he gathered his own kick and scored a fine try. The Romans were not satisfied with a draw and from the restart a loose kick was expertly counter attacked by Gavin Weeks who scored the winning try in the dying seconds. Jubilation for the Romans running out 5 - 4 winners.
