🏉 A Gritty Day of Rugby – Team Spirit Shines Through!

What a great day of rugby we had! The team kicked things off with a fantastic win in our first game, setting the tone with energy and confidence. Though we narrowly lost the next three matches, the real victory was in the team spirit, grit, and determination shown by every player.

From start to finish, the squad gave it their all. Heads never dropped, and every tackle, pass, and sprint was full of heart. It was a fabulous team effort that truly showcased the character and resilience of our players.

A huge thank you to all the parents and families who came out to support – your cheers and encouragement made a real difference. And a special shout-out to Jessie’s dad, whose extra training tips on the day were invaluable and much appreciated by the team.

👏 Well done to everyone involved – we couldn’t be prouder!
