Last Sunday 18 March, four Year 7s from Discovery College – James Wade, Trent Rossouw, Yuval Tomasis and Sean Brennan – featured in the DB Pirates Rugby team that lifted the Richard Hawkes Cup to become Hong Kong Under 12 champions.
In the semi-final the team beat pre-tournament favourites Hong Kong Football Club 4-0. However, the final against Valley Fort was a much tighter affair. At the end of normal time the score stood at one try a piece, but the Pirates kept their nerve to eventually win a thriller with a ‘golden’ try.
