Congratulations to Tigers Craig Hughes and James Large for being selected to represent Wales in a tournament in Belfast, Northern Ireland last weekend. Unfortunately James had to drop out of the trip after breaking his leg, and so Craig was our clubs sole representative on the trip. I have seen reports of the three matches of which Wales won one and lost two and Craig did the club proud.

James has broken his leg playing rugby and will be out of action for the next six weeks. Obviously it's a big blow for James as he missed out on the opportunity to play for Wales U15's in Ireland last weekend and we are also going to miss him in action for Tigers U14 and U16 teams. Everyone at the club wishes you a speedy recovery James. Jul 25, 2013, 10:39 am
