Rugeley’s touch rugby team capped off the summer with a surprise series victory in the Staffordshire Series.

The event had taken in 7 tournaments over 7 weeks starting and ending arbitration Walsall.

Tournaments were hosted at Essington, Wheaton Ashton, Cannock, Stafford and Rugeley along the way.

Rugeley were rewarded for the amount of new and returning players they had in each team and the fact they entered each tournament.

It was a mixed team and included players who had never played the sport before.

Captain Bethany Leone collected the shield from county Vice President Rob Forsythe said:

“I am delighted to have won the series. I am grateful to the dedication of all my players for showing up every week and the volunteers from all the clubs who put so much effort into hosting the tournaments. I can’t wait till next summer to defend our trophy”

Rugeley’s Brad Malcolm was named player of the series.
