The boys were recognised by the Sports Advisory Committee for their efforts on the field at the ACT All Schools Rugby Union Competition, which saw them return home with the ACT Brumbies Shield.
Coach and Hennessy Catholic College teacher, Nathan Cooper, is proud of the boy’s efforts.
“They scored 140 points and didn’t have a point scored against them. They’re a top side,” Mr Cooper said.
And what made the victory and receiving recognition by the Young Sports Advisory council even more exciting was that half of the team had never even played rugby union before.
