College Junior Touch Girls' win Auckland Zones!

After winning the Eastern Zone Touch competition, our girls qualified in first place for the Auckland Zones Junior Touch Competition. This is an annual event at Bruce Pullman Park in Papakura, held this year the day after our Year 10 students returned from their adventures at Field Centre!

The team played exceptionally well throughout the entire day, chalking up good wins in the round robin and knock out stages, attaining 29 touch downs and conceding only 5. Meeting Mt Albert Grammar in the final, our girls played with passion, driving hard and defending with courage throughout the entire game. Co-captains, Tori Kolosi and Tate McGregor, set up all four touch downs on the way to winning the title 4-2. 

Congratulations girls, this is a first time win at this event for the College.

Team: Tate McGregor (co-captain), Tori Kolose (co-captain and winner of the tournament Most Valuable Player award), Elise Conway, Summer-Jean Motufoua, Jessica Hill, Jemma Tasman-Jones, Ashleigh Garner, Mayah Coleman, Lucy Scarborough, Maddison Barnett, Amy Waters, Imogen Pilkington and Samantha Watson.
