On the afternoon of Monday 17 February, six members of the 1st XV had the pleasure of hosting a group of young football prodigies from Murgon State School. Firstly, we were introduced to the students and got to learn all their names and a bit of their background.
Next, we had a lot of laughs and smiles as we were racing the visitors through an obstacle course that posed a challenge to some of my fellow players. We followed this with a quick game of football tag to see who could get the highest number of tags. We’re not sure how Christian managed to get 200 in a minute!
The afternoon finished with a game of rugby and it was a blast! With plenty of tries to be had, huge cut out passes, big push tags and best of all, loads of enjoyment judging by the smiles and laughter. This was my biggest highlight – simply being in their presence and offering something so simple as our time and skills bringing such enjoyment to their day. Both groups had so much to learn from each other.
