England have fond memories of Wellington tournament

11:40 am on 5 February 2010

England have fond memories of the Wellington rugby sevens having won last year's event in a thrilling final against New Zealand.

But England skipper Kevin Barrett's adamant they won't be dwelling on the past.

Down 5-17 at halftime, England scored a try in the dying moments and then converted it to win 19-17.

Given that result, Barrett knows they'll have to withstand a barracking from the Wellington crowd.

The 2010 competition gets underway today at 1pm.
