The Southwark Tigers would probably not exist if Southwark Sports Development had not been so supportive.  Assunta Debiase, sports development officer, had both the vision and ability to help get the club on its' feet.  Over the last 10 years she has been the inspiration behind all the rugby that occurs in the borough...... For the record - two new rugby clubs , countless tournaments for children every year (more than any other borough in London), winning teams at all levels of borough competitions.  Thank you very much!
