Brooke and Chloe Klingner represented North West at the first-ever CHS State Carnival for Girls Rugby Union 7s. Congratulations to Brooke who was selected as Vice Captain for the team and received the North West Medallion as she was selected as Players' Player by her team. The team played 9 games over three days in Merewether against 10 other teams. The girls played competitively against the best Opens girls rugby players from around the state and the team finished up in 6th position.

Rugby League

On Tuesday 9th of May, twenty-five girls went across to Inverell to play in the Katrina Fanning Cup, Rugby League 9s competition. This day also included some passing drills and a safe tackle session.  We were only able to put together a full U14s side to have a chance to progress in the competition. It was the first time playing tackle football for many of the U14s girls. They put up a good fight throughout the game, but unfortunately did not win in the game against McIntyre HS to progress to the next level. I am, however, very proud of the rapid improvement in their game as the girls played another couple of games against mixed McIntyre and Inverell HS teams. 

The U16s and Open girls combined with Inverell HS and McIntyre teams to play a few games against O'Connor Catholic College. Unfortunately, this year, numbers are down in those age groups, so if you have been thinking about having a go at this growing women's sport, please put your name down for the next opportunity.
