Last year, the team found the physicality and structure of the tournament challenging, but this year told a very different story. Joe and Arthur led brilliantly from the front, setting the tone for the squad. Liam and new player David showed outstanding pace, finishing off several excellent team tries, while Joel brought a new level of physicality that lifted the whole group.

Every single one of the boys gave their all and represented the school superbly. I am incredibly proud of their progress and performance—although I must say, the singing on the way home wasn’t quite up to the same standard as the rugby! (Ear plugs for me next time!)
