Kingswood Close ISRF in Style
It was the final match of the tournament and Kingswood were clear 34-24 winners on a match when there were many huge victories. The match between Hilton and St Andrew's was the closest of all nine matches. This meant that Kingswood ended unbeaten as did Kearsney and St Charles.
Kingswood rather used the Bishops method to beat Bishops, running the ball whenever they could and giving the best chances to their swift backs.
Kearsney's points' difference was remarkable - 156 to 28.
The third day, like the first day, was blest with perfect weather - typical Cape winter's weather.
