Australian Youth Rugby 7s Training Camp: All The Best To Year 10 Student Nikeisha Ngaru

Australian Youth Rugby 7s Training Camp: All The Best To Year 10 Student Nikeisha Ngaru

Congratulations to our Year 10 student Nikeisha Ngaru who got the call up yesterday to attend her first Australian Youth Rugby 7s Training Camp.

She is now down in New South Wales training for the next three days.

Unfortunately, Nikeisha is too young to be considered for the Youth Commonwealth Games in August, as athletes have to be turning 17/18 years-old to compete.

However, Nikeisha is eligible for the Australian Youth and Australian School Teams.

These two teams will compete at the World Schools Rugby Festival in December over in Thailand.

This is an awesome opportunity for Nikeisha to further develop her skills and get amongst the next generation of Rugby 7s talent, while experiencing an elite training camp.

Canterbury Athletes @ Queensland School Sport Volleyball Championships | Weekend Results

Canterbury Athletes @ Queensland School Sport Volleyball Championships | Weekend Results

Year 12’s Jeremy Kriletich, Year 10’s Juliana Tamala and Year 9’s Amir Kakayee competed over the weekend at the Queensland School Sport Volleyball Championships at Nathan's Nissan Arena.

Amir represented in the U15 Boys playing as Libero.

His team played a strong competition finishing in 4th place.

At the Closing Ceremony, Amir was selected to represent Queensland in the U15 team as a shadow player.

Well done on your efforts Amir!

https://youtu.be/-raRdillM6k

Juliana represented in the U15 Girls finishing in 3rd place.

Juliana played out of position for the whole competition.

She normally plays setter - however, she did what the team needed and competed as an opposite.

With her depth of talent and resilience, learning the new position during the heat of competition, Juliana was announced as a shadow player for the U15 Queensland team.

Awesome stuff Juliana!

Finally, Jeremy represented in the U19 Boys.

His team were trailing 0-2 in the Bronze Medal Match, but dug deep and came back to reverse sweep and win 3-2!

Jeremy himself played a terrific tournament and was consistently dominant on the net.

Jeremy was announced at the Closing Ceremony as a member of the U19 Queensland Merit Team.

Congratulations to our three Canterbury volleyballers!
