HIGH JINKS

-

Wooden Spoon, rugby’s children’s charity, set a world record for a sevens match played at the highest altitude. Shane Williams and Ollie Phillips captained the two teams while England centurion Tamara Taylor refereed the game, which took place at 6,322m (20,741ft) on Mount Everest in April 2019. The group also played the highest

game of touch on that trip.
