Ian Elvin, Director of University Sport, was delighted with the news that Northumbria University will host the 2004 RFUW National Sevens Tournament. He said, “ the University is determined to support the development of women's rugby and to put on a number of prestige events each year such as this.
The National Seven's comes at a time when our own women's rugby and that of the Angels of the North Rugby Club welcomes the profile we will be able to provide the women's game. All players who come to the tournament will have a great weekend and a good competition.”
Further details of the event will be posted in due course.
