Narberth RFC under9s returned home from the Tigers Challenge Rugby Festival in Minehead as champions. After a fun-filled weekend away on tour, Narberth RFC topped their group before beating Cobham RFC in the grand finale, the team were then presented with their well-earned trophy by ex-England and Leicester Tiger’s star, George Chuter.

With over 250 boys and girls teams participating every year, the Tigers Challenge is the UK’s biggest youth rugby festival. George Chuter, who presented the team with their awards on the night, said: “To be crowned ESF Champions is a fantastic achievement. The team should be really proud of themselves. Well done to everyone involved with Narberth RFC.”

The victory was welcomed by Cath Macphee from Narberth RFC, who added: “We had a fantastic time away on tour at the ESF Tigers Challenge at Butlins, it’s been a great experience for us all and one which I’m sure the lads will remember for years to come. We had a great time across the whole weekend and put in some tremendous performances on the pitch.

“For the teams to meet George Chuter topped off a fantastic weekend. The boys are all set to build on their success at the Tigers Challenge!!”
