With the Ned Haig Kings of the Sevens rugby over for another year, youth and reserve squads from the Borders, East Lothian and elsewhere gathered at Walkerburn recently for a companion event.

Other teams taking part, in addition to the hosts, were semi-finalists Gala YM and Haddington, along with Selkirk ‘A’, Jed-Forest ‘A’, Earlston, Preston Lodge, Seaham, Duns, Hawick Linden, Trinity Accies and Ross High.
