TRY TAG RUGBY staged their annual Corporate Challenge event at London’s iconic Regent’s Park on Friday.
With last year’s champions Tullett Prebon unable to enter a side to defend the trophy, the 2013 title was well and truly up for grabs.
Merchant Taylor’s, one of the great nine schools of England and where rugby runs deep, started strong and looked like a team who would give the tournament a real shake up.
Stephenson Harwood LLP and EMAP also looked good in the early stages, winning their first two matches in convincing fashion.
The latter two teams ended up making the final with media company EMAP, led by LondonAustralia representative Tom Parsons, claiming the crown.
The Plate division was won by Merchant Taylors who defeated the Foreign Office in the final with Pcubed Programme defeating Works MC for the Bowl division trophy.
Try Tag Rugby’s summer competitions commence from 24 June at 15 venues across London and Reading.
Due to the successful Fulham League which sold out in its first season, Try Tag Rugby are introducing a second evening (Tuesdays) at Fulham.
The competitions cater for all standards of players with divisions including beginner, intermediate, A-grade and Super League for the ultra competitive.
Leagues are taking place at Acton, Balham, Borough, Canada Water, East London RFC, FinsburyPark, Fulham, Highbury, Hoxton, Reading, Richmond, ShoreditchPark, Southfields (WimbledonPark) and WandsworthTown.
