Year 7&8 Rugby Girls Semi Finals

The sun was shining in our eyes as we cheered for the year 7&8 Rugby girls. It was a hot day, perfect for a rugby game. Koru girls Rugby Team came all the way from South Auckland to play against our girls for the semi final.

“ Go Pt England!” The spectators on the side lines were cheering our girls on. A scrum was set up and the girls pushed as hard as they could. The ball went to our team and Mino passed it to her nearest teammate. Jaylee ran up the guts of the opposition getting hit. The Koru girls tried to get her to the ground but it was no use. Jaylee was a mad machine, eventually scoring a try!

You could feel the electricity in the air. The crowd was surprised at how amazing the girls were. Their defence was magnificent! One of the Koru girls had the ball, and ran it up to the try line. But before she got there she was hit by Athena. Amazing!

You could see and hear Koru puffing and panting as they went back to the goal post. Oshania was going to kick the conversion after we had just scored another try. The opposition were watching the ball. Sadly, Oshania had missed. “ Thats OK Oshania! Get the next one!”

The score was all tied up and the end bell rang. There was only one kick to determine the winners. They set up again and Pt England had the kick. Koru caught the ball and kicked it over the post making the score 15-16. Koru had won the tournament!
