Under 10 A

The Hunters Hill Under 10 A team was chosen after an exhaustive series of trials and training runs.

The team is:

Cameron Fazzari (Prop)
Louis Gray (Prop)
Nic Rea (Hooker)
Alex Croti (Prop or 2nd row)
James Ashhurst (2nd row)
Josh Starr (2nd row)
Layton Holley (Lock)
Isaac Lewis (1/2 back)
Joe Skelly (1st 5)
Paul McCaffrey (1st/5 or centre)
Vea Tapa (Inside Centre)
Darcy Searl (Inside Centre)
Kallan Millar (wing)
Oliver Young (wing)

The season has been underway for three weeks and the "A" team have had three very good victories:

V Newport 58-0
V St Ives 86-0
V Forrest 68-0

The team have played a very open brand of rugby. This has been illustrated by the number of tries the wingers have scored. The team has a sound understanding of the basics of rugby and play a simple game that involves all the players on the pitch.

The highlights of the season include:-

1. The rucking and clearing out by the forward pack
2. The straight running and passing of the ball by the backs
3. The defence
4. The clubs first victory against Newport at under 10 age group

At this stage the boys have not been tested but the next three matches will be a good indicator of their ability.

The team is looking forward to the upcoming matches. It is great to watch a group of boys put into practice what they have been taught. They are having a ball.

Finally Rod Dufficy (age group co-ordinator) selected Isaac Lewis as the team captain for the season. This was well received by the team and parents.

Layton Holley is the vice captain.

Cheers

Tony Lewis
