ON Saturday, November 7, the lovely game of Rugby made a grand return to the National Park with the GTT /GRFU 10’s Tournament.The day’s activities saw a resurging Pepsi Hornets team, (made up of several national players) having the better of a young University of Guyana (UG) Wolves squad. The composed Hornets defeated UG Wolves 13 -0.

The game started with both teams looking very defensive but it was the Hornets’ Leon Greaves, who started the points rolling with three points from a field goal, followed by Basie Bailey with a conversion to finish off the first half of the game.

Rickforde Cummins added another five points in the second half taking the score to 13 to close off the day’s play.

UG wolves’ defeat resulted from their many blunders and drop catches at crucial times in the game which gave the Hornets the upper hand in the match.

The second game between the Guyana Defence Force (GDF) and Yamaha Caribs was rescheduled for another day due to little time for that game to be played.

Action in the GTT/GRFU 10’s Tournament would continue next Saturday, November 14, with two more games; Ladies A vs B match up followed by the battle of the arm forces – GDF versus Police.

The competing teams are GDF, Pepsi Hornets, UG Wolves, Yamaha Caribs and the Guyana Police Force (GPF). The two female teams will comprise a mixed national A & B teams.
