One of the exciting things to see in a young rugby player is initiative - when a player doesn't wait for his chance, but takes it.

That is Tomas Gallo.

The former Okapi Wanderers player, who played in the All American system, is still searching for opportunities.

From Florida, Gallo has secured a spot with the London Scottish Academy, and will return there for this season. It's not an easy position to attain, but he worked hard to get there, and stay there.

Here more of what Tomas Gallo has to say here

 Not enough? During this summer Gallo looked for high-performance opportunities, and found that opportunity in ... Canada. He played for the Upright Rugby Rogues U20 team, helping that squad to a 5-1 record and 3rd place in the NAI 7s.

It's all, said Gallo, about taking your shot. He said he loves playing with players he doesn't know, and has learned a lot.

Maybe we can learn a lot from him.

Tomas Gallo is our Ramblin’ Jesters Young 7s Player of the Month.
