East win Division One of Boys' U16 Inter Regionals

3 Team Ipswich players were part of the East region’s boys team that lifted the U16 Inter Regional Division One Title after completing an unbeaten campaign in Grantham.

The East had two re-arranged fixtures to play after the second day of the original tournament was postponed.

Having won both their matches from the original competition, East took on North West Tigers in their first rescheduled game in Grantham.

Tigers were the only other team unbeaten from the first set of matches and were looking to land the Boys’ U16 title for the second year in succession.

But it was the East who burst out of the blocks in the match, establish a 7-4 lead through three quarters.

To their credit, Tigers pulled off the comeback in the final quarter, scoring three to share the spoils at 7-7.

East returned to the water against London Sharks in their second game, closing out an 11-8 victory to move to the top of the group table.

And with Tigers defeated 14-8 by North East Steelers in the final match of the day, the title was awarded to the East.

Well done to Josh Mills, Dan Loveless and Cameron Baigrie (not pictured)
