All the boys and parents had a great time, playing plenty of rugby and taking in the

Kyja Washington | Cobham RFC U12s | Exeter Tour
Though it9s often eclipsed by the
better-known cities of Bristol and
Bath, Exeter is well worth visiting in
its own right, with a thriving
nightlife, a lively cultural scene and a
rich history stretching back 2000
years. Exeter suffered heavily during
the Luftwaffe raids of WWII,
although
the
cathedral
close
survived relatively intact, and still
boasts
some
one
medieval
architecture.
Founded by Celts and expanded by
the Romans, Exeter grew rich as a
trading port during the early Middle
Ages, and the city9s fortunes were
demonstrated by the completion of
its glorious Gothic cathedral in the
early 15th century.
The beating heart of Devon, which
itself is the heartland of Rugby in the
South West craved Premiership
Rugby for years, and once it came,
the Chiefs have excelled.
The Rugby traditions of the area
stretch far past the cities premier
outot. Rugby is at its best down
here. The games are tough and
uncompromising, but the reception
and welcome is honest and heartfelt.
Exeter is a must for all Rugby
Tourists.

Chiefs match tickets to a
