The Australian U21 World Cup squad, who are using Maidenhead RFC as their base during the cup, thanked their hosts for their hospitality on Sunday when they ran a coaching session for Maidenhead's U15s and the Mini section.

The Aussie squad coped well with wide range of ages from the U15s down to the U7s. In particular the U15s were coached in line out skills .

After the training session the Australian players then helped present all the minis with their trophies they had won from the previous season including the player of the season awards for each age group.

The Australians also presented the club with a signed shirt and were kept busy signing autographs as all and sundry tucked into a tasty barbeque cooked by the parents during their training session..
