GIRLS RUGBY
|
The 2017 Girls Rugby season was bookended by gold! In Jasper, after a grueling final game that went into overtime lasting almost 30 minutes, we decided to share gold with our rivals, Westmount Charter. During the season, our team saw tremendous growth both from returning and rookie players. The returning players readily showed the rookies the ropes and taught them what it means to be a part of a tight-knit rugby team. Captained by grade 11 player Heritage B, our team continued to grow in speed, skill, and strength. The girls went 5-0 in their final tournament to take home the gold again. Angel O was named tournament MVP after scoring more than 10 trys, while Hiba K won the drop kick competition. Top overall point scorers were Angel O, Heritage B, and Mikayla L. In addition, 15 trys were scored by forwards. Props to you, ladies!! |

BOYS RUGBY
“The FFCA Boys Rugby Club had a great year despite some significant hurdles. Downsizing to a Jr league side and an exhibition Sr. side meant a mix of experience throughout the lineup this year. By the end, we had a committed, seasoned rugby squad that not only had a lot of fun but was also competitive. The Jr. side was anchored buy a strong grade 10 core with a lot of promise in the grade 9s. A few of our grade 11s got the chance to join them. The Sr side was a mix of those same grade 11s with our graduating grade 12 that have been with us for 4 years. The greatest part of rugby is watching the camaraderie that builds and the bonds that form. It truly is a family.” |
