Congratulations to Kai (U14s) and Tate (U16s) who played for the Southern Rebels at the NSW Touch Football Junior Regionals in Mudgee. Sapphire Coast Touch Association is part of the Rebels region which extends from the Sapphire Coast all the way up to Sydney and includes affiliates such as the Sharks, Roosters and the Wollongong Devils. As an affiliate that is only 2 years old we are so proud that two of our players were recognised and selected into these teams and we can’t wait to continue developing our junior talent. The future is bright for the Sapphire Coast Crays!
