U16s on tour!
Sidmouth U16s 53, Lansdown 12
Sidmouth U16s 57, Barnhall [Dublin]19
The Sidmouth U16 tour to Dublin was a great success with the party of 22 young men behaving impeccably, being a credit to themselves and ambassadors for Sidmouth Rugby Club.
The tour would not have been possible without generous sponsorship from a senior clubman and Michelmores Solicitors. Their contributions were carefully invested in a cultural exchange at the Irish House Party in Merchants Arch.
The tour was also fortunate to receive support in the form of bespoke polo shirts from East Devon based Allwood, one of the UK’s most progressive exponents of timber frame construction.

Sidmouth achieved two outstanding wins; one in the shadow of the Aviva Stadium, against Lansdown, and the other on the outskirts of Dublin at Barnhall.
Playing highlights were a Jenkins drop-goal, the outstanding Gosling try, the acceleration of Parnell, the tackling of Toomey and Faulkner, the excellence of Perchard-Richards and Kearns, the running of Malec and the length-of-the-pitch team try touched-down by Thomas.
