More than 100 mini rugby players took part in the parade from the station to Victoria Park and then onto The Orchards Shopping Centre who sponsor the mini side of Heath Rugby Club.

After a photograph around the Orchards’s May Pole the minis, led by club Chairman Mark Newey, marched back to Victoria Park where they put on a display of rugby and took par in the tug of war. Haywards Heath RFC are the largest community sports club in the town and were proud to show off their skills and teamwork at the event - if you are aged 6 to 16 and interested in joining or trying out rugby please contact Heath minis Chairman Brian Nimmo on [email protected].
