Coalminers Cup

On Friday 28th March, St Xavier's sent 5 teams to participate in the Coalminers Cup here in Gunnedah. It is an annual Rugby League Competition that has been running since 1998. Each team played 4 games throughout the day against schools from around the area. Everyone showed great sportsmanship and teamwork and improved in every game they played. The shield went to Narrabri West Public School, well done to everyone for participating and a special thank you to our parent managers on the day!
