A huge well done to our U16A rugby team for their outstanding performances across a series of recent rugby festivals.
The boys showed incredible determination, resilience, and teamwork throughout, taking on strong opposition and rising to the challenge in every match.
One of the standout moments came in a thrilling clash against St Davidβs, where Graeme secured a hard-fought 25β21 victory. The team displayed excellent composure under pressure and managed the game superbly in the closing stages.
Festival Results:
- Graeme College vs St Davidβs β Won 25β21
- Graeme College vs Middelburg High School β Won 21β8
Across the festivals, there were plenty of memorable moments. Powerful ball carries, strong defensive efforts, and moments of attacking brilliance highlighted the teamβs growth and confidence. The boys consistently stepped up in key moments, supporting one another and maintaining intensity throughout.
Their cohesion and work ethic were evident, with combinations improving as the festivals progressed and the team continuing to build momentum with each game.
A special congratulations to James Muir, who was awarded Player of the Tournament at the Jeppe Rugby Festival β a fantastic achievement and well deserved for his consistent performances and impact on the field.
Overall, a highly encouraging set of performances from the U16A side. The team can take great pride in their efforts and look forward to the rest of the season with confidence.
