The Canberran 2012
The 2012 CGS Junior Rugby Season was a huge success with four teams making the finals. The structure of training developed from one training session per week to two and as a result there were significant improvements made by all. The U9 Blue team went from strength to strength and lost only three games throughout the season. In their semi-final, the team beat Uni-Norths 35-10 and in the grand-final, the team were victorious over a strong Gungahlin side 40-10. Under the guidance of CGS Old Boy and now Year 6 teacher Mr Hugh Hunter, the U10 Sky team showed tremendous improvement through the season. The team galvanised

throughout the 13 week competition and narrowly missed out on a Grand-Final place. The U11 Sky team made the Div 2 semi-finals and despite leading 14-5 against St Edmund’s College, the team fell a few points short of making the grand-final. The U12 team had a season to remember. Coaches Mr Tim Guthrie, Mr Mark Leatham and Connor Burdette set the standards and the players followed with unrivalled commitment to training and matches. The team topped the ladder after the regular season but a strong performance from Yass in the semi-final halted the team’s progress. Mr J Abrahams MIC Rugby
