2 Welcome I would like to take this opportunity to warmly welcome you to New Hall School for the 2013 U12 Sevens Tournament. We are delighted to welcome so many schools and competitors for this annual event, which I hope will be enjoyed by all. I would like to wish the competitors every success and I look forward to congratulating the winning team. Mrs Katherine Jeffrey Principal, New Hall School A warm welcome to all players, staff and parents to the New Hall School U12 Sevens Festival. The popularity of Sevens is ever growing and at New Hall we are lucky enough to continue to play rugby throughout the Lent Term, with an increasing emphasis on this form of the game. Yet again, this tournament has welcomed a group of high calibre schools, and it is clear to see that this should be the most competitive festival to date. Thank you for making the effort to travel to New Hall and I hope we have an exciting day of rugby ahead. Mr Thomas Taylor Head of Rugby We would be grateful if all spectators observe our strict no smoking policy across the whole site and ensure any dogs are kept on leads. Please note the play equipment is out of bounds.
