Spitfires romp to rugby title
The RAF Spitfires won the Calcutta International Sevens rugby
tournament at the CC&FC ground on Sunday. Throughout the tournament
they showed their class, decimating others to mere sideshows.
The rain poured down on Sunday and the pitch was soggy. But the
Spitfires, led by Rory Wood, were good enough for all conditions. They
made short work of the Armenians in the quarter-final, then swept
aside IIHM by a 71-0 margin in the semi-final. Future Hope put up some
fight in the final. But the Spitfires were on a different level,
winning 34-0 and annexing the crown.
The runner-up Future Hope, however, had something to cheer about as
Karim, their fly-half, won the player of the tournament award.
