Michael Short, Six Pack Club Captain, said: "The club is delighted to have come through another Edinburgh STS event as champions.

"The best of Scottish Touch always gives their all at this event and we had to beat very strong sides from Aberdeen, Glasgow and Edinburgh to win this one.

"We were fortunate to have good weather, quality referees and opposition playing exciting touch, so we had a fantastic day and hope to continue our great run of STS wins to 4 in a row in Stirling!"

President of the Scottish Touch Association, David Matthew said: "It was a great start to the 2014 STS with keen competition played in a good positive spirit.

"Congratulations to all involved in playing, refereeing, spectating and organising this event; and to Six Pack for winning the Edinburgh leg of the Scottish Touch Series."

The next event in the STS will be held in Stirling on the 7th of June.
