TAS RUGBY CARNIVAL TAS playing Pacific Lutheran College during the Rugby Carnival - TAS went on to win B Division Almost a thousand young rugby players from NSW and Queensland honed their skills in friendly competition at The Armidale School Rugby Carnival, thought to be the biggest junior rugby carnival in Australia. The 11-13 year olds from 42 teams travelled with their coaches and families from across NSW and southern Queensland for the seventh annual carnival, which Wallabies coach Robbie Deans, who attended in 2009, has described as a “fantastic advertisement for the game”. Teams were divided into three divisions – with each team playing four games over the weekend. In the C division final, the undefeated Inverell Junior Rugby Club triumphed over St Pius X College of Chatswood in the final, having previously beaten St Marys/TAS 39-0, Toowoomba Prep 2 28-0, Kinross Wolaroi 44-0 and Trinity Grammar School 43-0 in their pool matches. TAS 1 won the B division ahead of Matthew Flinders College Brisbane and Sydney schools Kings, Scots and Shore, while Padua College Brisbane took out the A division defeating fellow Queensland schools Toowoomba Prep, Churchie, Nudgee and The Southport School. Team of the Carnival was awarded to Kinross-Wolaroi School from Orange, whose enthusiasm and sportsmanship was boundless despite winning only one of their four matches. The event could not have been held without the support of major sponsor KooGa. Rob Egerton, manager of the Wallabies and member of the 1991 World Cup team was the carnival's official guest. He spoke to the junior players on Saturday afternoon and was guest speaker at a function at the Armidale Ex-Services Club in the evening. Carnival organiser and TAS sportsmaster Jason Lincoln said the carnival was the first tour for many players. “The atmosphere was just fantastic, to have so many young players showing their enthusiasm for their game in glorious weather, was just terrific,” he said. “This is an event that can only be done with the support of the wider community, and brings together rugby players and supporters from a large section of eastern Australia in competition that is all about team spirit and camaraderie.” Binghi 152 Term 1, 2011 9
