On the 22nd to 28th April 2018, England's Deaf Rugby team headed down under to Sydney, Australia, for the biggest ever Deaf Rugby tournament, and our Dave was on that plane.

Don't worry, they didn't let him fly the plane.

Both men's and women's international, Australian and Barbarian teams were in attendance and the competition was fierce. Fortunately, everyone was in good spirits.

The lads and ladies gather for a big group shot, proving sportsmanship is alive and well.

After an intense week of tournaments, in which the England lads won a whopping seven out of their nine games, Wales were the ultimate victors. England came in a very close second place though, and the team were all smiles. Fiji came in third.


Our Dave even won player of the tournament and top try scorer! He said "It was a great experience and I am honoured to be playing for the England Deaf team".


Well done Dave! We couldn't be prouder. Have a scroll through the gallery above for more pics.
