Coxy's temporary charges run up 55 points

PAUL COX has been spreading the word north about rugby.

The head of Worthing College's rugby academy, who plays in the London Welsh back row, having begun his career with Worthing RFC, ran a day workshop for a school in Wolverhampton which is trying to establish the game as part of its curriculum.

It was attended by 50 boys from Deansfield High School, a mixed secondary school working in a under-privileged area.

The day successfully led on to the first ever rugby fixture at Deansfield High against a local school also trying to establish rugby. The fixture was played by the year 8 pupils and Deansfield - obviously with the superior coaching - high run out winners by 55-0.
