YOUNGSTERS in Stockton were given the opportunity to learn new sporting skills.
Stockton Borough Council's sports development team held the event at Billingham Rugby Club to give girls from school years eight, nine and ten the chance to learn more about tag rugby.
It was one of two events aimed at giving youngsters the opportunity to try their hand at the sport.
The second took place at Norton Sports Complex for primary school pupils from years five and six.
Sally Mulcaster, sports development officer at the council, said: "These events are a great opportunity for young people to learn more about rugby as well as providing the chance to forge links with local clubs and coaches.
