The tournament will comprise three entry levels including eight to ten year olds in the morning and 11 to 16 year olds and adult events in the afternoon.

The needs support from companies, rugby clubs and schools in the area for team entry and sponsorship or to provide stalls and activities. For more details e-mail helpforheroes.crfc@btconnect.com
