The Carrick Sevens Festival tournament began on Friday 3rd May with the now traditional Under 19s competition sponsored by Samurai. In the semi-finals of the Cup competition, defending champions Surrey Colts overcame Queen’s Barbarians while, in a somewhat tighter contest, Edinburgh College beat BRA Big Dogs, out-scoring their opponents by three tries to one. The final shaped up to be a close contest but, with play held up for a lengthy spell for a serious injury to one of the Scottish visitors, Surrey Colts adapted better after the interruption and came back from two tries to one down to win the title , and the Everest Cup, for the third time with three unanswered tries in the second half. Newsletter player of the competition was Henry Cheeseman of Surrey Colts. The Plate competition was won by Larne Vikings who beat Cookie Monsters from Portadown in the final. Malone took the Bowl with victory over Rainey’s Rejects from Belfast High School.
