The Bermuda Police Service rugby team won the league championship on Saturday, marking their first title since 2014. The victory took place at the National Sports Centre, where they defeated the defending champions, the Bermuda Institute, in a closely contested match.

“This win means a lot to us,” said Police captain John Smith. “It’s been a long time coming, and the team worked hard to achieve this goal.” The match ended with a score of 22-20, showcasing strong performances from both sides.

The Police team had previously reached the finals multiple times but fell short of securing the title. This year’s championship run was characterized by a series of strategic plays and teamwork that ultimately led to their success.

The rugby league in Bermuda has seen a resurgence in popularity, with more teams participating in recent seasons. The Police team aims to build on their success and develop their roster ahead of next season.

The Bermuda Rugby Union was established in 1968 and has since promoted the sport across the islands. The league features various teams, including schools, clubs, and local organizations, providing a competitive environment for players of all skill levels.
