During July this year, an expression of interest for a Rugby tournament was sent out, and with just 4 training sessions, the boys found themselves lacing up for their first game on a warm Wednesday afternoon. Mixed with emotions of excitement and nerves, the team took to the field to play a 10-a-side Rugby match. Although some were new to the sport, the unwavering spirit and chemistry of the boys led them to a 31-5 win over Moriah College, a remarkable effort by Fort Street. Following the end of the tournament, Fort Street unexpectedly, yet deservingly, found themselves in the finals match against the experienced Kesser Torah College. Although fighting hard, the team left the field with an unfortunate final score of 10-5, one game away from winning it all. However, this tournament acts as a pivotal moment in Fort Street Rugby culture and must be seen as a huge success. The community would like to express a heartfelt thank you towards Ms. Ezekiel, Mr. Sarif, Trae (our training coach) and any other staff members involved, for their efforts in making this tournament possible. A massive congratulations to each and every one of the courageous players. The entire Fort Street community stands by them wishing them one win further next year.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8 wixui-rich-text__text\"><span class=\"wixui-rich-text__text\">Team<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8 wixui-rich-text__text\">Year 10: Damon Kim, Alexander Patterson, Max Hutchinson, Charlie Dey, Joseph Mcgee, Lachlan McIntyre, Max Bai, Joe Roper, Leo Courtice &amp; Jacob Read<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8 wixui-rich-text__text\">Year 9: Grant Gao, Thelo Harris, .<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8 wixui-rich-text__text\">Damon Kim<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8 wixui-rich-text__text\">Year 10<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-mesh-id=\"comp-lq5datdrinlineContent\" data-testid=\"inline-content\">\n<div data-mesh-id=\"comp-lq5datdrinlineContent-gridContainer\" data-testid=\"mesh-container-content\">\n<div id=\"comp-lq5datdw1\" class=\"KcpHeO tz5f0K comp-lq5datdw1 wixui-rich-text\" data-testid=\"richTextElement\">\n<h2 class=\"font_2 wixui-rich-text__text\"><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"comp-lq5datdy\" class=\"MazNVa comp-lq5datdy wixui-image\" title=\"Resized_20230320_095358(0)_edited.jpg\">\n<div class=\"j7pOnl\" data-testid=\"linkElement\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-6377 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2024\/01\/07aaf8f2-f6ba-4ce0-bdf4-e1e01011f7c0.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2016\" height=\"1512\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"comp-lq5datdz1\" class=\"KcpHeO tz5f0K comp-lq5datdz1 wixui-rich-text\" data-testid=\"richTextElement\">\n<p class=\"font_8 wixui-rich-text__text\">\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In 2023, Twelve Fortian boys in Years 9 and 10, were ready to tackle a new challenge and carry Fort Street into the unknown world of Rugby Union.
