The Sandon School Yr 9 Rugby Squad celebrate
off the travelling supporters
and they were in fine voice
throughout. In a tough,
tense and pulsating match,
where the lead changed
hands 4 times, Sandon had
to work harder than they
ever have all season to keep
themselves in the game and
set up the winning score for
the massively influential Tris

Koch goes over for
the winning try
work, but the team also had full back Will
Broadrick to thank for an amazing last ditch try
saving tackle that would have put St Clere’s 2 tries

Fantastic and noisy celebrations as the whistle

the boys were spent! Congratulations to all the
boys, many of whom come from Danbury and our
surrounding villages.
