A rugby club recently put on a tournament and a host of other fun activities in order to do its bit for Help for Heroes.<\/p>\n
Cranleigh Rugby Club hosted its second annual Fat Boys 7-a-side Rugby Tournament on Saturday (June 15th), reports the West Sussex Gazette.<\/p>\n
In the end, it was the Cranleigh Barbies who stole the show, winning the tournament ahead of Dorking, while the Dragons Destroyers managed to triumph in the Plate final.<\/p>\n
Toby Eves, a member of the rugby club, organised the tournament and said: "The day was great fun and a considerable amount was raised for an extremely important charity doing vital good work in supporting our injured servicemen and their families."<\/p>\n
In addition to the rugby, attendees were invited to wear fancy dress and points were awarded for the best costumes.<\/p>\n
Overall, the event raised more than £2,500 for Help for Heroes, taking the total fund over the last two years past £5,000.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
