Our 1st XV played their opening game on Saturday against Kia Aroha College. The boys played with a lot of spirit and came away with a 89 -5 win.
Kia Aroha never stopped trying and their efforts were to be commended. Our boys played a strong, physical style of rugby and were worthy winners. We were able to score 15 tries and converted 7 of them.
Players, coaches and management would like to express their sincere thanks to Miss Eldridge, and Miss Pettifer and the Year 13 students who helped to organise the after match function. The meal we shared with the players, coaches and management from Kia Aroha was amazing.
A big thank you to all staff who attended the game, your support and encouragement means a lot to the boys.
Our next game is this Saturday at Sancta Maria College, kick off is at 12pm.
Forward of the day: Soni Rogan
Back of the day: Atelemo Katoa
Coaches choice: Savelio Savelio
Have a great day, Hillary Heart.
