Players from four clubs; Ballymena Bears, Newforge Taggers, Donaghadee Sharkies and Coleraine Cheetahs gave a display of competitive and exciting rugby. The blitz was a result of five week tag rugby programme at Sandleford School, Coleraine, which was delivered by Ulster Rugby's Community Rugby Officer Shaun Bloomfield. Speaking after the session, Coleraine RFCC President, Norman Blair, said: "I am delighted to see the impressive turn out of players, parents and supporters. It's been a great occasion for the club to welcome the teams to our first venture in disability rugby." All the participants were provided with hot dogs and juice at the end of the successful and enjoyable morning. This session was made possible due to the generous support of the NI Executive and the Department of Culture, Arts and Leisure through the 'Promoting Equality, Tackling Poverty and Social Exclusion through Sport' programme. The next Tag Blitz will be hosted by the Ballymena Bears at Eaton Park on Sunday 17th November.  Tag Rugby is a non-contact sport that is an enjoyable, fun and active way to keep both healthy and fit. It can be played by men, women and children of all ages and all abilities.
