COLTS RUGBY Standing: (L. to R.) Mr. M.R. Hall, J. Carlow, R. Chickite, S. Flemming, L. Hill, K. O ' Kennedy, M. McPhie, M. Vopni, F. Martin, A. Lambrinoudis, Mr. G. Dickens Seated: (L. to R.) F. Tovstigo, C. Cottrell, G. Friesen, S. Wade, T. Sigf- stead, M. Hunter, R. Paredes Fro ; .- (L. to R.) D. Payne, M. Pomeroy The Colts team started what was to be quite a successful season under the coaching of Mr. Hall and Mr. Dickens. Even though we had a large number of inexperienced players to begin with we did quite well early in the season beating several public schools. After the initial exhibition games we played in the Mid- Island Championship. There were four schools in the tournament, including our rivals, Brentwood College. Our first game was against Cowichan and we won by a fair margin, which put us into the finals against Brentwood. They posted an early lead but we came back to win the tour- nament with a 16 point victory over Brentwood. We were not very successful against any of the private schools except for Brentwood whom we beat 2 out of the 3 games played. After losing our second game with Brentwood we worked up for the last game of the season, against Brentwood. It was our best game of the season with everybody playing to the fullest of their capabilities. The team led by Garth Friesen and myself, was quite small in comparison with some of the other teams in our league, but what we lacked in size we made up for with skill. The backs were very powerful and benefitted greatly from the strong running and tackling of both Florian Tovstigo and Raul Paredes. Todds Sigfstead set up many of the key plays at fly half opening many scoring opportunities for Fred Martin on the right wing. The size of Mike McPhie and Chris Cottrell and the skill of Scott Flemming made some of our rucking the best in the league. Over all it was a very successful season and because of this there will be a tour in May. S. Wade (Grade 11) 29

We were very short on experience and lacked the basic skills so essential in our Independent School matches. One of the most disappointing aspects of the season was our inability to bear down while under pressure and show our opponents that we wanted to win. This, of course, is due to inexperience but 1 did feel we threw in the towel too early! Despite our weaknesses, there were some very encouraging signs by the end of the season. Given another few months and a few more games the Colts B could be moulded into a very respectable side! Best of luck to those boys moving into Senior Rugby next year. Standing: (L. to R.) Mr. G.
