Primary Marist Tournament

This is the 4th and final game. The tournament has gone well so far. The only problem is we missed the 3rd game, against Stone Fields which I was personally looking forward to this game, but we missed it. So in the bus we go and we're off.


When we arrived at the Marist grounds 30 minutes before lunchtime, I’ve got to tell you that the weather was not on our side today. It was windy and rain came and went like it had a switch for a light. This is going to be a tough challenge today.


The whistle blew and the game started. We were ready to catch the ball… the ball was caught and the first hit up was made, down he went. This just kept happening. When the opposition had the ball they’d kick down the field and not chase after it.


The highlights of that game for me would have to be three tries. Number one, the try that I made when we were close to the out line and I scooped up the ball from the ruck and bumped my way through the opposition and scored the try. Number two, the try scored by Taimana. He was magnificent as he scored the try right by the corner on the try line right next to the out line he jumped and placed the ball on the trie line and rolled outside the field. Number three, Maysun’s try: he was running next to the out line with Tai and then Tai did a short backhand pass to Maysun and Maysun scored the try.

After the game we went inside the club rooms and had a prize giving. Surprisingly enough we got a feed, it was from Subway it was a 6 grams of fat or less ham sandwich and we also got a starz drink, man the feed was delicious. After that they announced the Girl M.V.P (Most Valuable Player) then the boy M.V.P was Stevenson from Pt England School with us cool aye. Then the moment we’ve all been waiting for the winner is… PT ENGLAND SCHOOL. Yes we won it was awesome.
