Heading to the Sanix Rugby Tournament this year is incredibly special for me and the team. I’ve been part of this group for three years now and watching the team grow over that time has been an awesome experience. Last year I had the privilege of being the vice-captain, so to be trusted with the captaincy this year is something I’m extremely grateful for. Over the past few seasons, we’ve worked hard to build something strong. Winning the CNI, Hurricanes Cup back-to-back was a huge achievement for our team, and finishing in the Top 4 two years in a row shows the consistency and dedication the boys have put in. One of the biggest moments for us was winning the Moascar Cup for the first time in our school’s history, which was something truly special to be part of. Now we have the opportunity to take our rugby overseas to the Sanix Tournament, and it honestly feels like a dream come true. The boys are really excited for the challenge and the experience. It’s a chance to represent our school, test ourselves against international teams, and create memories we’ll carry with us for the rest of our lives.
