Touch Rugby

The RGHS 3rd Touch Team put up a valiant effort in their first match of the term, facing off against Claremont High School in a friendly touch rugby game. Despite a nail-biting finish, the team narrowly lost with a final score of 3-2.

Throughout the match, the team’s determination was evident as they came inches away from the try line on several occasions. While the outcome wasn’t what they had hoped for, the 3rd team displayed a remarkable spirit and resilience, with many players participating in their first-ever touch rugby game. This game sets a strong foundation for the rest of the season and we look forward to seeing their growth in the coming weeks!
