Thirty-five teams from across the district's local primary schools have been working their rugby skills every Tuesday evening this month.
Argyle Park has proudly played host to the fast-paced sevan-a-side games, with several grounds marked out across the park.

Staff from the Council's Open Spaces team have been keeping the grounds in shipshape condition to host the comp, attracting positive feedback from the comp's organisers about its "immaculate" state.
