South Queensferry beach was the setting on Friday 12 January for a meeting of the four captains of the semi-finalist teams in the Bell Lawrie Scottish Schools’ Rugby Cup. Also present were two injured members of the Scotland team, the Calcutta Cup, soon to be competed for between Scotland and England, and of course the Bell Lawrie trophy itself. Pictured left to right are Fraser Brown (Merchiston), John-Patrick Ward (Dollar), Ally Hogg, Mike Blair, Michael Cachia (Strathallan) and Chris Mason (Bell Baxter).
