The England side bidding for glory at Dubai Rugby Sevens enjoyed some rather ingenious downtime this weekend.

Between taking on the rest of the world’s best Sevens sides in the UAE, England’s players took in a game of Rugby Golf in Dubai.

The Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club played host to Richard de Carpenter and his team-mates for a spot of relaxation.

Vision Sport posted the original video on their Facebook Page having organised the trip for the England team.

We reckon this Rugby Golf lark has a future…
