THE THIRD XV THE FOURTH XV The 3rd XV enjoyed a successful season winning its Independent Schools ' fixtures and only losing to the 1st XV ' s of two of the local high schools, namely Cowichan and Lake Cowichan. Well led from the base of the scrum by Ian Malcolm, the backs made good use of the ball won for them by a very spirited pack of forwards who were large, ener- getic and keen. The forwards always managed to get on top and thus made life a lot easier for their backs, of whom none ran more strongly than Cody Walker and Bill Hollands. It was disappointing for this team to have their St. Michael ' s University School fixtures cancelled due to the inability of our opponents to field a team. J.S. Grey The 4th XV, the other (and some say better) half of the second game, enjoyed an undefeated season in their Inde- pendent Schools ' fixtures. As with the 3rd ' s, it was a fine pack of forwards who laid the ground work for their victo- ries and the backs thus enjoyed much more of the ball than did their opponents. Chris Duncan in the centre made good use of the ball and always played hard. Stephen Heffelfin- ger, the captain, was an intelligent and sound link between forwards and backs. It would be difficult to single out any of the forwards for special praise as their success was due to team work and not to individual brilliance. Both teams were a pleasure to coach and approached their games and prac- tice sessions with great spirit. J.S. Grey THE FOURTH XV Back Row: (L. to R.) Mr. J.S. Grey (Coach), K. Chambers, C.

Kroon, R. Mahadeva, J. Kromhoff, C. Brodgesell After last year ' s winning spree against Brentwood the third game hoped to continue the trend this year but Brent- wood had other ideas. The Fifth XV played as hard as they could but in each game Brentwood had the edge. Fortunately, the Sixth XV did better and registered wins in each of their games ther- eby helping to restore the balance. The Fifth ' s played against opponents who were faster on the wings and more aggressive in the pack. Despite heroic efforts by all the players in the Fifth XV team, they were unable to record a victory. The Sixth ' s played more ferociously than their oppo- nents, especially in the scrum and the three-quarters were quick off the mark. They handled the ball well and passed it efficiently. They won all their games. J.S. Findlay 22
