@Alex_dombrandt
and
@Harlequins
.A brilliant turnaround and well deserved. Playing a brand of rugby that is clearly enjoyed by all players. What would the young boy in these pics say if you told him what he would go on to achieve.....
Strength and conditioning in full flow. 50+ seniors with personalised programs, fundamental movement skills being introduced into every year and EPDG being developed in each age group for rugby. Not bad for a state school.
