1st Jun'08 - Three Coaches setoff for
Twickenham at 6am (hic)
yesterday morning with Derby's U9s, U11s and Supporters on them, the destination
was Twickenham for the Gullivers Finals Day.
In the Gullivers Final our U9s won by 1 Try to
Nil against Braintree and our U11s lost by 2 Tries to Nil against Salisbury. To
reach Twickenham both sides had got through the Qualifying tournament at the
Gullivers Festival in Nottingham earlier this year. As a Club Derby RFC have
been very privileged to have had Teams reach the Twickenham Finals day for the
past 5 years, it's not everyone that can say they've played at Twickenham. Well
done to both of our young sides this year, I'm sure that it will be a day that
they will remember for a very long time.
Once the Gullivers Finals had been played out
we all sat back to take in and watch the Guiness Premiership Final between
London Wasps and Leicester Tigers unfold in
front of over 81,000 supporters inside Twickenham - awesome !
Here's the Photograph Galleries of our
U9s at Twickenham, our
U11s at Twickenham and also of the
London Wasps v Leicester Tigers match.
