The CARIHI Senior Girls Rugby 7s team is set to host the North Island Championship today.

The four-team tournament is set in round robin format, with the top two teams continuing on to the Island Championships on May 25 at St. Michael’s University School in Victoria.

CARIHI will be playing off against Highland Secondary (Comox), Nanaimo District Secondary School, and Cowichan High (Duncan) in fast-paced 14-minute long 7s games on CARIHI’s home field.

The Tyees are coming into the contest with high hopes after a 3rd place finish at the Shawnigan 7s tournament, and a 6th place finish at the Westshore 7s meet in Victoria.

The girls are set to play this morning at 10:40 a.m. & 11:40 a.m. and at 12:40 pm this afternoon on the lower CARIHI field.
