Wye Valley Brewery 7's

The original tournament was known as the Soggy 7's and took place in the Millenium Year . It was a chance for the Fat Boys to get lost in space and a focus for the young Luctonians who had flown the coop to University, The Army or HM Prison to come back together.

In the foundation years competition for the Pyrex Bowl was fierce with the Porn Stars posing the stiffest of adversaries and the Herefordshire High School Old Boys their fat lady.

 Wye Valley Brewery approached the Organising Committee in 2006 and offered sponsorship or beer. Norm generously accepted both, and Hartpury, Worcester Cougars, Suzies Badgers and The Otters were encouraged to enter and take up the challenge against teams such as the Bucknell Barbarians, The Nomads and the Cider Specialists.

A catalogue of minor broken or dislocated bones and runaway victories for the "Professional" teams forced the O.C. to run a two day competition.in 2007. Unfortunately the pressure of league rugby and a competition in season meant that only 5 teams entered for the 2k prize money. The Bucknell Barbarians lifted the Roger Williams Memorial Cup this year in the Social event ,to round off a fantastic year of success following wins at the Bahamas 7's ,where they won the Plate and the Knighton 7's the Cup. Disappointingly the 2008 Main tournament was cancelled due to a lack of entries even though it was scheduled out of the season on May 4th.

The Social Sevens in 2009 will be on Easter Saturday April 11th.
