The Happy Shopper 20/20 took place today at the Lower Lode Pub in Tewkesbury on a picnic table, which added an extra challenge to the match. It was a close game however after many box infringements from Fox, Clements took the spoils 10-22. A scrappy game with only three tries, all other points from penalties. Good game and a good debut for team Fox.
