Tag-Rugby

On Thursday 25th April, 10 children from Class 3 took part in the sports cluster Tag Rugby event at Selby RUFC. Six teams were present at the tournament, including our 3 x Federation schools, plus Tockwith, St Joseph’s Tadcaster and Barkston Ash Primary Schools.

There were a range of abilities on show, with everybody learning something on the day, along with some fantastic individual performances from our pupils involved. 

The results from our Federation schools are as follows: Burton Salmon finished second overall, Barlow finished fourth and Chapel Haddlesey came in fifth place. The overall winners were Barkston Ash, who won every game that they played. 

Mr Rich (Head of School at Barlow) accompanied the children and said the behaviour of the group was fantastic, as was the effort the children put into each game. He also highlighted Dougie and Buddy’s performances as exceptional. Well done to Archie, Jake, Ayva, Ashton, Lily H, Ollie, Buddy, Dougie, Lily D and Romeo, who took part and represented Burton Salmon so well!

Lily D said: ‘I liked how we got to play 3 games of rugby and I was very happy that we got through to the final. Out of the other schools there, Barkston Ash were tough competition’.
