Marr Mini's prove bit hits

As part of Land Rover’s involvement in UK rugby, they are holding a Land Rover Rugby Tour Festival at Bath on 30th March 2019 for rugby teams of under 11’s (P6) and under 12’s (P7) drawn from the Glasgow Warriors, Cardiff Blues, Bath and Wasps regions. The Glasgow Warriors selected their representatives through age grade rugby festivals for which both Marr P6 and P7 were .

Figure 1 Marr P6
The Marr P6 Team played their Qualifying Competition at Scotstoun Stadium with 9 other very strong teams on 27th January 2019. They played fantastically well and won all of their group matches against Dumfries, West of Scotland, Highland and Lomond only letting in 1 try and scoring 10. This took them through to the final against a very good Perthshire Team. The final was tightly contested with Marr P6 coming out on top winning the final 1 - 0 and reaching the Land-rover Finals in Bath.

The P7’s route to the Land Rover Rugby Festival took them on the road to a qualifying festival in Perth on 17th February 2019 where they met opposition from Ross & Sutherland, Lenzie and Perthshire in the group stage. Through the demonstration of solid defence, good ball handling skills and all-round team work the Marr team progressed by winning all their group games before meeting Allan Glens in the final. A continuation of the skills shown in the group stages, saw Marr head to Bath on the back of a 9 – 1 win.
The players from both age groups displayed a considerable amount of skills and can be justly proud of their performances.
