Endeavour Primary school dominate State Tackle Rugby Carnival

Schools from across the metropolitan area had to qualify by winning their regional carnivals, so the standard of competition was high.

That did not stop the dominant Endeavour boys side from going undefeated to claim the title from St Damien’s Catholic School in a hotly contested final. The girls almost matched the boys’ effort, finishing top of their group before battling to a third place finish.

Boys coach Ben Liddle and girls coach Paul Nurse said they were proud of their teams’ performances and sportsmanship at the carnival.

This is Endeavour’s first State Championship team.
