Today was a good day for Hall 7 as our rugby team qualified for the quarters with relative ease.
The first preliminary round saw se7en winning via a walk-over against hall 14 as they did not have enough players.
For the second qualifying game, we were facing hall 3 whose players were all bigger and stronger than hall 7's players. However, there was only determination and not fear in the eyes of our rugby guys.
The game was truly played in a rough fashion ans se7en came so close to scoring through Gabriel's and Joel's brilliant runs. The tackles were flying fast and furious, however, the game ended in a stalemate and it was time for sudden death. Hall 7 made three substitutions which unsettled the team a little and cause a lapse in concentration which eventually saw hall 3 scoring as their player burst off in a brilliant run to the touchline.
However, the game was played in good spirit and both team qualified for the quaters as the other two halls in the group stages did not manage to field any team.
