Our thanks go to all at Bishop’s Stortford RFC for hosting the day and in particular to Peter Houghton and Cameron Mackenzie for organising the Cup during the season. Well done for booking good weather! We also thank the Herts Referees’ Society for providing officials on the day and during the season.

And finally, of course, thanks to all the players, their parents and coaches for their efforts and support through the season.
