Burleigh Travel's annual trip to the Sussex coast for the perennially popular Bognor Mini Rugby Festival did not disappoint again in 2014.

The Setting....

The weekend began at the Holiday Park accommodation with a reception for tour organisers and coaches where a drink (or two!) were enjoyed with the sun setting over the Solent as a back drop. The touring rugby teams went on to enjoy the onsite activities; especially the superb swimming pool and evening entertainment at the holiday park throughout the weekend when not involved on the rugby field. Thank you to all at the Holiday Park for contributing to the success of the weekend.

The Rugby...

The rugby for the weekend began with the Mini Rugby Festival on Saturday 12th April 2014. Follow this link to read a report about the Bognor Junior Rugby Festival held on 13th April 2014.

30 teams of young rugby players battled it out in a fun filled day of rugby across 6 different age groups at sunny Bognor RFC to compete for the all important silverware. A big congratulations to all players for providing some fantastic rugby for us to enjoy and also to all those who supported and cheered along the way. Thanks also to the hard working and friendly team of volunteers at Bognor RFC who, once again were integral to the success of the weekend.
