CDSSA Rugby 7’s Development Day
On Monday, Emanuel School hosted the inaugural CDSSA Rugby 7’s Development Day held at the Randwick Rugby Club’s fabulous training facility Latham Park, South Coogee.
The day began with an intensive skill development session provided by experienced NSW Rugby coaches and our local NSW Waratahs Development Officer.
It was a very special day with Emanuel School’s first ever female rugby team making their debut. The team played some excellent rugby with Lucy Klein and Lucinda Labi showing strength and some powerful running.
Many of our junior boys also experienced their first taste of rugby, all showing huge enthusiasm on the field. Coby New, in his first game, scored lot’s of tries – impressing with his great speed.
Our Intermediate boys were also impressive as their experience begins to show. Jonah Trope was once again outstanding and Alon Erez Rein also put in a strong performance.
All students involved on the day thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
The smooth running of this rugby event was a tribute to Kristy Genc who had the initiative to create this concept.
A big congratulations to our head rugby coach, Heath Morley, who is doing a remarkable job developing our students skills and ensuring Emanuel School’s rugby programme continues.
