UNDER 8s - Scott Duncan (Coach): What a great day in a Junee!

The under 8s had an absolute blast and really enjoyed their day.

They played 4 exhausting games and were all very tired by the end!

Somehow, we managed to have a relatively dry field for the entire day much to some of the boy's disgust!

The lure of the nearby mud was too inviting during the breaks!

Although not a competitive age group - the kids kept a close eye on the score and unfortunately went down by a try in the first game.

The team came back on the field for each remaining game with fire in their belly to win the remaining three matches! Great day all round

They won each of their three games with special mention to the match against Valley Dragons.

It was a very tough game start to finish, and the boys put in an amazing display of skill and determination proving exactly why they are such a great team.

One of the best games we have seen them play all year!
