What a year it's been for Wooden Spoon rugby, with victories across the whole of the British Isles, and while rugby prides itself as one of the ultimate team sports, it would be remiss of Wooden Spoon not to acknowledge the outstanding individual achievements of some of our key players whose contribution both on and off the field has been vital to Wooden Spoon Rugby's success.

Once again Wooden Spoon will be the beneficiary charity for the JP Morgan Premier 7s at Bath, Northampton, Sale and Harlequins over July and August.
