We are excited to celebrate our Year 8 student, Charlie White! Charlie began his rugby journey with Northampton Old Scouts Rugby Football Club (NOSRFC) in September 2023, having never previously played for a team. Despite being new to the sport, he quickly showed dedication and determination, and by the end of the 2023/2024 season, he was proudly awarded 'Under 12s Most Improved Player'.

Playing in the second-row position, Charlie trains every Wednesday and takes part in matches most Sundays—whether home fixtures or away games against other local clubs, with occasional travel further afield. His commitment and love for the game have continued to grow throughout the season.

In spring 2024, Charlie joined the NOSRFC Under 13s on their tour to PGL Osmington Bay. The tour ran from Friday to Sunday and proved to be a fantastic team-building experience, helping to strengthen the bond between players both on and off the pitch.

On the Sunday, NOSRFC faced off against several teams, including High Wycombe, Swanage & Wareham, Minchinhampton, and Grasshoppers. The games were intense and physically demanding, but the team gave it their all, ending the day with two draws and two hard-fought losses.

Charlie continues to develop his skills and passion for the sport and is already looking forward to what the next season will bring.
