Rugby – BHP Western 7s Rugby Carnival
TGS had two teams entered in the carnival which was played on Saturday, 19 and Sunday, 20 October.
The U15 team played well over the two days but went down to St Brendan’s College (Yeppoon) in the semifinal.
The Opens team played entertaining, yet disciplined, 7s rugby over the two days culminating in a win against Wadga Wadga Community College (Woorabinda) 26-19 in the final to claim the Opens title.
Well done to all the boys involved.
