The boys are off to a good start - they played as a team with 'goal' contributions from many. Great to see the positive team work, them using the pace of the ball and width of the field to beat defenders.The weather is surprisingly OK - cold, a freezing wind but no rain!

Last weekend we went to Blenheim to play in a mini tournament against Marlborough, Nelson and Canterbury.
Our first 2 games against Marlborough and Nelson went well with good team work and 11-0 and 6-0 wins. Our coaches Nigel and Subs were reasonably happy, but we did miss a few opportunities.
Our game against Canterbury was to be our big match of the weekend. Unfortunately, half our team were struggling with food poisoning and sickness so we performed well below our best, losing 6-1.
