Even though they were a little tired they showed great skill and team work in both games! If you have seen these boys play then you will know what an amazing little team they are and how they continue to improve each week.

This week two Milo Man Of The Match Players were Henry Power and Torrin Hillyer. Both boys played very hard and these awards certainly well deserved.    Coach Louise Wright 

Bega had a fight on their hands this weekend with Bombala Blue Heelers U8s putting in a great performance only narrowly being beaten five tries to four by the Roosters. U8s always give 100 per cent.

Jake brown led the play once again charging up the field all day and with some beautiful offloads and as a reward earned himself a try. Zara Brotherton pulled off some great tackles and Sam Power made some strong runs throughout the game. Fred Merritt , Ari Sten and Ruby Smith worked tirelessly all game with defence while Gracie Brownlie, Tanner Hurley, Liam Strickland and Mathew Reed working hard all game in attack.

It was hard to pick but this weeks Milo Man of The Match went to Josh Tellis who scored some exciting individual tries and tackled hard throughout the game. Well done champs. Coach Rollie Skellern

Blue Heelers U9s travelled to Bega with no idea that they were going to face arguably their strongest opposition yet. It was a really good game and the perfect chance for the coach and trainers to see where the team needs to improve their game.

The U9s attack was equal to Bega’s. Bombala Blue Heelers had more structure and seemed to be more organised with several players directing the team around the field. Bega however proved that if you tackle well and your opposition does not, you win. Overall it was another solid game by the Blue Heelers.

Everyone is playing well the standout yet again was Tom Marsden because of his strong and willing defence. This week’s Milo Man Of the Match was Lachlan Reed for his powerful running game. Once again a big thank you to the families of the under 9s who are a great support even for the away games, makes such a difference to the team’s performance and it shows. Coach Drew Manning

Bombala U12s hit the field in great­spirit. Although it was not far into the game before trouble hit mainly due to the players that were missing this week with illness and injury.

Over the last couple of weeks this team has shown improvement perhaps everyone is getting use to their positions for this season.  There were some really great hit ups and the tackling was much improved, overall the defence was a lot better then early in the season.

The best and fairest points were awarded as following three points Jayden Clear, two Max Smith and one Fletcher Manning. Coach Damien Smith

Each week gets a little more interesting as the season goes on with the Blue Heelers Girls Oz Tag Team dominating the first 10 mins but were unable to convert into points. The temperature was hot and the girls struggled and Bega were up 12 to­ 0 at half time.

Wonderful tagging by Leah Luke and Bree Brownlie. The second half the girls played much better and worked together as a team defending hard.

Karter Hampshire had a length of the field try too and there was an elusive run from Emily Perkins also resulting in a try.

The final score was 16 ­8 Bega taking the win but there was a great improvement from the Blue Heeler girls yet again and they are all looking forward to next week. Coach Emma Sullivan

This weekend Bombala headed to Bega for what was a scorching hot day.  The U14s played well in patches against a well drilled, in form and much larger team.

Unfortunately the Bega boys were able to push through and score a number of quick tries.  However, Bombala continued to try their hardest and do their best. 

Eventually, the lads made it over the line, with a fantastic individual try from Bryson Phillips Jones.  Bryson was awarded one point and Players Player for a solid all round game.  Well done mate.

Two points went to Lane Stevenson for his exceptional defence.  Getting better and better each week.  Keep up the great work Lane!

Three points were awarded to Blake Baldwin for his outstanding hit-ups, which made a number of brakes and gained meters for the teamand also had a very strong defensive game. Awesome effort again Blake!

All boys should be proud of their efforts.  See you all at training where we will prepare for our next home game.
