Cooke Minis are the best!!!

🏉 Minis schedule change at Shaw’s Bridge 🏉

A busy morning at Shaw’s Bridge today as the Cooke Minis were out in force.

We had coaching for P1/2, P4 and P5, while, in a last minute change up P3, P6 and P7 were in action against Instonians across the pitches.

The sun even made a brief appearance — which is starting to feel like a lucky charm for Saturday mornings. ☀️

There was plenty of brilliant running rugby, strong tackling and lots of tries scored. The coaching groups were sharpening their skills, while the match teams showed great teamwork and determination.

Playing Instonians always feels a little like going back to school — and today the Minis showed they are learning the right lessons: support your teammates, run hard and enjoy the game.

Huge thanks to Inst for the matches and the great spirit of mini rugby this morning.

Team Mate of the Week this Week was Leo! (Sorry old photo) 

Grew stronger and stronger as the games went on. Really solid around ruck in attack and defence! Alongside his elusive ball carrying he’s showing that he’s becoming a really well rounded player. Well done!

Jacob, what a deserved teammate of the week this week! 

Always working hard for the team, a real grafter tracking back to tackle, and also some silky stepping skills that were on show today for a memorable try. 

Well done Jacob, keep it up!

Raphael was this weeks TMoTW. Raph has showed superb grit and determination for one of the youngest in the team. He gets stuck in and enjoys himself thoroughly, with fantastic development for his age. 💪🏼🏆
