🏉 U10 HOUNDS — SEASON FINALE 🏉
What a way to finish the season! The Hounds faced a fired-up Marist Saints side who came out swinging with some big tackles and plenty of intensity. But the Hounds showed composure, turned the momentum around and built a solid foundation through completed sets and some well-forced kicks.
From there, individual brilliance began to shine. Roman burst the game wide open with a barnstorming run from beyond halfway, powering through to score. Aaron then produced a moment of his own brilliance, intercepting the ball before taking advantage of a quick play-the-ball to dive over and score.
The Hounds added another try before the Saints fought their way back with a string of tries to level the scores just before the final whistle. A well-deserved, hard-fought draw was a fitting way to close out the season! Each player has grown so much through the season and the growth was evident in all the players who took the field.
🏆 Player of the Day — Aaron: An exceptional performance built around outstanding game management and individual brilliance.
💪 Tackler of the Day — Xavier: Tireless work through the middle all game. He never stopped working and was a huge part of the Hounds’ defensive effort, not mention his cheeky try from Dummy half.
🤝 Fair Play — Ihaia: Exceptional service from dummy half and fantastic encouragement of his teammates at half time.
What a season, Hounds! The coaches are incredibly proud of the progress every player has made, both individually and as a team. You’ve worked hard, backed each other and continued to grow all season.
ONE TEAM. ONE PACK. ONE IN, ALL IN. 🐺
Way to wrap it up, Hounds! Enjoy the break — onto next year! 🏉🔥
