The Junior Yabbies held their annual presentation last Friday evening at the Young Services Club.
Club president, Jeff Nuthall, began the proceedings by thanking all the parents and helpers for another outstanding year of rugby. The club benefited this year from increased numbers of registered players. This was reflected in the Girl’s Viva teams, both junior and senior, with the Senior Viva’s making the grand final in their first year.
A highlight was Friday night training which often ended in the clubhouse by the wood heater, with canteen manager, Addy Nuthall, and her girls whipped into gear severing hearty meals.
