U85kg<br />
Rugby<br />
League<br />
The Under 85kg Rugby<br />
League team came 1st in<br />
the Auckland Boys' U85kg<br />
competition.<br />
Tag Football Girls<br />
This year the Girls' Team<br />
was mixed with both<br />
Junior and Senior Girls all<br />
at different levels.<br />
We entered the Secondary School<br />
Tag Football Competition held at<br />
Bruce Pulman Park, Papakura.<br />
We knew as a team that the<br />
competition would be tough and<br />
challenging but this didn’t stop<br />
us as we had a few experienced<br />
players who helped carry our<br />
team through the tournament.<br />
We went out there to play for<br />
fun but to also play for a place in<br />
the Auckland Champs. The girls<br />
managed to take the win against<br />
Aorere College which put us in 6th<br />
Place and also qualified us for the<br />
Auckland Champs!!!<br />
Overall the girls did exceptionally<br />
well during both tournaments. For<br />
some it was their first time making<br />
it to the Auckland Champs which<br />
was a goal for them and for us<br />
Year 13s in the team. Our team<br />
represented the school with pride<br />
and also came away with great<br />
achievements.<br />
A special thanks to our coach,<br />
Vi Viniki, and manager, Frances<br />
Viniki, for giving up their time to<br />
help coach and support us during<br />
our tournament, for also putting<br />
up with us and encouraging us to<br />
do our best in every game. A big<br />
thank you to Elizabeth Teraitua for<br />
keeping us hydrated after every<br />
game and lastly for being our<br />
number one supporter.<br />
