This was one of several held over this summer, aimed at encouraging girls and ladies of all ages to have the opportunity to play rugby.

Even with the changeable weather, all the players really enjoyed the session.

BWGR secretary Lorna Jackson-Hall said: “It showed rugby can embrace all diversity and that inclusion is alive and well in Borders rugby.”
