A young rugby star racked up 19 tries in one game – but it still wasn’t enough for victory in an incredible 105-105 draw.

In an exciting game of end-to-end rugby, Bablake School’s U12 D-Team drew against Stratford’s King Edward VI School.

The Coventry school’s only undefeated team this season racked up a massive 21 tries – with 19 of them being scored by Josh Dobson, who hadn’t even picked up a rugby ball a few months ago........

maybe these lads hadn;t been taught how to tackle?

that seems to be 42 tries total. Schools make their own rules up as they go along sop this presumably may well have been an 80 minutes game for U12s (?!) - and that equates to a try on average less than every two minutes.

RFU regs for U12 is a 40 minute game which brings that to a try scored in less than every minute.
