Presenation by Tom Yeulet

Tom spoke about his involvement in the National Independent School's Rugby Team (The Lambs) who toured Ireland during the Easter holiday. Tom played in all 4 matches and The Lambs won all 4 games.

Tom told the division about how he was selected and the high standard of team-mates and opposition. The second match was against the Leinster Academy and played in front of 3000 spectators. A brilliant experience!
