U7 Allianz Cup - CRFC u7s narrowly miss out on a finals place

The Champions Cup is one of the highlights of the u7 year, with some of the best teams in Essex, Kent, Sussex and London competing for the coveted Allianz Cup.

The Chelmsford team qualified for the Champions Cup event back in November at Twickenham with the finals being held at Allianz Park before the Saracens v Northampton clash on Saturday.

Despite being highly praised by the match officials and the competition for their manner and style of play, their sportsmanship and enthusiasm, Chelmsford u7's, narrowly missed out on a place in the final, losing to Tring u7's in the semi finals by 8 tries to 7.

The team topped the pool stage with victories over Upminster, Letchworth and Maidstone, and a very unlucky draw with Hampstead. In a really evenly matched semi final, the team narrowly lost to Tring who went on to win the Cup.

All the Chelmsford boys lined the side-lines to loudly and enthusiastically support Tring in the final game and showed true sportsmanship.
