Third place for Pacific Islanders!

PI 7 - Curacao National Team 6

Super proud of this team who despite a rocky start, did an amazing job to come third place in a very competitive match against Curacao National Team (who beat us yesterday in our first game). Very high standard of competition this year.

A special thanks to our sponsors:
FFF
The Box Project
Impact Teachers

And to our Italian boys, grazie, grazie, grazie - we could not have done this without you (literally).

Semi final: Loss.

PI 2 v Ovale Marseille 5

An early harsh call on an alleged tip tackle set us back against a good team and they took an early lead. P*s can be proud for playing defensively and with integrity. A scuffle meant we were down to 4 and they were down to 3 and we capitalised. PI team be proud, you were competitive against a match fit team who have played many tournaments this season. Kia kaha!

Highlights of the day: big team effort ending in an amazing try by Rico in our last game + getting to know our new Italian whanau. This makes ordering food 100% easier ha!

Lowlight of the day: game 2 curse rises again, this time against Belgium.

Game 2 result: PI 3 - Belgium Magnets 8

21/07/2018

Score first game: 6-4 to Curacao.

Unfortunate sin bin for us allowed Curacao to score a couple of times before half time. PI pulled it together to almost level in the final minute but a flick back not picked up gave Curacao their final try. A good showing for the boys - especially as we've all met 30 minutes ago! Le Manu. Bring on Belgium at approx. 12pm.
