Big day at rugby’s HQ
Monday 2nd June 2008, 11:49AM BST.
Members of a Shropshire rugby club played to a crowd of thousands in a “once in a lifetime” game at Twickenham.
Players from Highley Rugby Club played the game of their lives at the home of English rugby on Saturday.
The club, which was only formed 18 months ago, put out two teams – the Miners and the Colliers.
They played a 30 minute match before the Premiership final between Wasps and Leicester Tigers.
Highley Colliers won the game 17-5, winning them a coaching session with Dean Ryan, the coach of Gloucester RFC.
