We are delighted to welcome you all to the Aldro Rugby Sevens Tournaments, taking place this year as follows:

• U12s on Wednesday 21st February 2018.
• U11s on Wednesday 28th February 2018.
• U13s on Wednesday, 7th March 2018.

As always we would like to take this opportunity to thank all the schools who have supported this event over the years. Without you the Aldro Sevens would not be possible.

As ever we anticipate another Tournament full of action, skill and excitement played in a competitive but sportsman like spirit. This is a true symbol of what sport is all about and we are delighted that all the schools participating are strong advocates of this philosophy.

Sport plays a huge role here at Aldro and indeed in the lives of all our boys. Our sporting aims continue to remain clear, perceptible and evident in all aspects of our physical education programme.

• We strongly promote enjoyment and a sense of fun through participation in all sports whilst endeavouring to improve skill levels and an understanding of the values that are the backbone of team sports.
• We actively encourage participation and strive to breed a desire to be active and healthy.
• We work extremely hard to develop sportsmanship and an overall understanding of both winning and losing in order to develop well rounded young men.

I would like to take this opportunity to extend my appreciation to the parents, teachers and coaching staff who are here with us today, as without their dedication, support and commitment to extra-curricular sporting activities none of this would be possible.

I hope you enjoy a fun and rewarding time at Aldro.

Head of Sport & Physical Education
