In this, their first time competing in Europe's most exciting sevens tournament, Gordon's U14s; U16s and U18s travelled to Lisbon for the Lisbon Junior 7s. Putting in excellent performances against tough opposition, the 31 boys finished off sixth overall in their categories with the U16s bringing home silverware as eventual Plate Winners. Head of Rugby Chris Davies commented: "“I see tours of this kind, as the ideal opportunity to assist with our preparation for the sevens season. To play different opposition in a foreign country presents these boys with many challenges which of course is great for their learning and improvement of their 7s game."
