ENGLAND 21 V CANADA 9
Led by Darlington Mowden Park Sharks captain Katy McLean (centre of picture with trophy, Tamara Taylor to right) and for only the second time in rugby history, the England Women’s Rugby Team can claim to be the best team in the World following a convincing victory over a brave Canadian side, in a pulsating Rugby World Cup final.
With most of the Darlington Mowden Park Sharks supporting first hand in Paris, a few remaining Sharks cheered alongside a full club strong contingent from the Arena CrossBar, making enough noise to carry to Paris as the Mowden Family roared on Katy and Tamara.
Both of the girls responded to the occasion with great individual performances and fully deserved their prime position on the winners’ podium as victory was celebrated.
Well done girls! A fantastic effort which hopefully makes all the sacrifices worthwhile.
The nation is proud of you!!
