We hope you have been enjoying the season so far! Our boys have had some great games away and at home, with teams all having a good run in the early stages of the season – including our inaugural u85 team, competing in the National u85 Tournament, who had their first win (38-0) over the weekend vs Poneke Wanderers from Wellington in Whanganui.
