Boxing legend Frank Bruno dropped into Burnham-On-Sea on Sunday (May 4th) to cheer on his son at a rugby tournament in the town.
The former World Heavyweight Champion mingled with the large crowds at the BASC Ground, as pictured here, during the second day of Burnham Rugby Club’s tenth annual junior rugby festival.
“Each year the festival produces some of the most exciting mini and junior rugby you can find,” said organiser Alister Strahan of Burnham RFC.
“This year has been no exception with unprecedented support from parents and coaches – it’s been a festival to remember.”
Over 3,000 young players, parents and friends flocked to the festival from across the UK. A total of 68 teams participated with youngsters aged from 9-13.
The players and parents nervously watched the results board to monitor their progress during the weekend.
