As we are about to embark on our 2020 campaign for 7’s rugby, we would like to thank JNL for their most generous sponsorship we received earlier this year.
We travelled away to wellington to play in the National Club 7’s and placed 7th of 16.
For our first time entering this tournament we were really pleased to make the top 8.
For many of our team they hadn’t travelled to the capital before, and it was an incredible trip away. Our team was made up of local boys – aprrox 80% Maori and they came up agsinst players who are big names on the 7’s scene. Many of whom are or have been international representitives for NZ and the pacific islands, or will be in the near future, so our top 8 finish was far better than anyone liekly expected.
As we are hosting the first leg of the Northland club series we would like to invite any of the JNL team to come along and join us as our guests this wekeend coming to see the boys in action.
Once again we would like to extend our sincerest thanks for your help in travelling away, without this support we would likely not have been able to attend.
Regards,
Clayton Murray
