CHILDREN at a Bromsgrove school have been celebrating the ongoing Rugby World Cup by participating in two training sessions.

Thinus Delport, the former Worcester Warriors and South Africa player, visited Catshill Middle School, in Meadow Road, to give the session to the pupils.

Thinus is an athlete mentor from the Sky Living for Sport, the initiative promoting sport and its benefits in schools across the UK.

The mentor delivers the scheme at Catshill alongside Chadsgrove School.

Dave Hewitt, from the school, said the youngsters enjoyed the session which included ball handling and tackling skills.
