Rugby Clinic with our Year 8 Students - Jud Mullins

Our Year 8 students were given a taste of Rugby League over Weeks 5 and 6, with Wangaratta Knights coach Leigh Drage and player Scott Miller visiting and running clinics in Physical Education classes.

With rugby being a sport most of our kids haven’t grown up playing, they relished the chance to learn something new. The art of handling the rugby ball was worked on first in a range of passing and catching drills, and then out came the full-body-height Tackle Bags. A few of the kids were taken aback with the ferocity with which Leigh hit the bag when demonstrating how a rugby tackle differs from an Aussie Rules one, but they had a hell of a time giving it a go.

Thanks to Leigh & Scott, who were terrific with the kids, and were great ambassadors for a sport which some of our students may decide to take up.

There is talk of an Under 17 boys team being started up next season, as well as a summer tournament to attract new players. For students interested, get in touch with the Wangaratta Knights. 

Thank you to Kev McGennan for taking all of these brilliant photos.
