Moss Vale club finally had their first run for the 2022 season at Eurocoast Polocrosse Club Carnival held at Sunny Corner, Hall ACT, over the weekend. It was a few cold nights and a chilly windy Saturday, but Sunday turned out to be a beautiful sunny day! Best of all, there was no rain so we all stayed dry!
We had 5 Mossy players and were joined by the lovely Jess from Albury-Holbrook club to make up the team. The team were in the B Championship grade for the weekend, with points putting them about mid-field. We had a few new horses making their debuts, and it was great to be back on the field after nearly a year off (last carnival for us being Wagga in June last year).
We had some tough games Saturday against Lake George and Burradoo, coming out on top both times. For Sunday we had games against a second Lake George team as well as a Eurocoast/Mix-Up team. Going into our last game against Eurocoast/Mix-Up Team there were 3 teams with 3 wins a piece - Burradoo, Eurocoast and Us. It was a tough, hard fought game against the Eurocoast players, but in the last 2 chukkas Mossy made a break for it and came away on top! A great way to cap off our first carnival this year!
Thank you to Eurocoast Club for a great carnival, sponsors Ranvet and Wade Mathie Breaking & Training for the great prizes, and our club major sponsors Gladiator Horse Floats and Southern Highland Toyota for supporting our little club.
Next weekend is Yass Carnival, hope to see everyone there!
