During the South Island Tournament the U14 Boys A team fought valiantly in a highly competitive grade, going down to eventual winners Nelson in a close semi final and ultimately beating North Canterbury, finishing in 3rd place.

Gheill Zac Azarcon, member of the B Boys, claimed a commendable 3rd place in the B Grade, coming out on top in numerous games that went down to the wire.

The Development Boys team took home the C Grade trophy after dominating the competition and going undefeated.

Well done to Lulu and Zkaria who were stars in the A team, securing a solid 3rd place in the A Grade, gaining revenge over a solid Eastern Southland squad! Isla, Katia, and Phoebe played in the B team and finished 4th in the B Grade, a testament to their effort and improvement throughout the season.
