London Griffins - 2005 Hull IMBRL 7's

2005 Hull IMBRL 7's

In the final action of the 2005 season London Griffins travelled to Hull on 23 October 2005 for the Hull IMBRL 7's tournament.

The Griffins got off to a poor start with successive group stage defeats to York and Castleford but recovered well to take the scalp of the Leeds Lost Loiners. The final group game saw a comfortable victory over Sheffield Forgers which earned a place in the plate competition.

In the plate, Oldham were beaten in the quarter finals and the Hull side Dads Against Drugs were beaten in a nail biting semi final. The final was against Halifax and Griffins were always ahead in close game finally winning by 6 tries to 5.

So a successful first season ended on a high with the club's first silverware as plate winners of the 2005 Hull IMBRL 7's.
