Darlington Mowden Park Under-9s returned triumphant from the Houghton seven-a-side competition on Sunday, where they beat Middlesbrough 20-10 in an excellent final.
Mowden lost their first game of the tournament to Consett, but then powered their way through the rest of the qualifying rounds unbeaten.
In a tense semi-final, Mowden overcame Darlington 5-0 before lifting the trophy in an equally exciting final.
Mowden also competed in the Under-10 competition, which was won by Darlington.
