<strong>110</strong> PER CENT<br />

TENNYSON EDITION<br />

0 Rugby<br />

Mr Tyron Mandrusiak<br />

The 2014 Terrace Rugby Program<br />

is well underway and will<br />

once again see a record number<br />

of boys pulling on the Red and<br />

Black butcher stripe jersey. A<br />

special welcome to our friends<br />

from Brisbane Grammar School.<br />

The Terrace Rugby Community<br />

has developed a solid foundation<br />

with clear goals and objectives.<br />

The Rugby program is<br />

committed to offering a safe and<br />

well - structured environment<br />

with the focus on participation,<br />

enjoyment and the opportunity<br />

to learn. In doing so, the program<br />

provides boys, coaches and referees<br />

with a strong framework<br />

for improvement and abundant<br />

opportunity to develop the key<br />

elements of Rugby.<br />

On Saturday, 38 teams will be<br />

taking the field to represent Terrace.<br />

With so many boys taking<br />

part, the program requires<br />

a huge amount of support. This<br />

is achieved by working in close<br />

partnership with the coaches<br />

and managers, referees, parents,<br />

doctors and sports aids. On<br />

behalf of the 750 boys playing<br />

Rugby – I thank you.<br />

I would like to particularly thank<br />

Mr Darren Round and the Rugby<br />

Supporters’ Group for the work<br />

they put into the program and<br />

making a day at <strong>Tennyson</strong> the<br />

best schoolboy Rugby can offer.<br />

0 Rugby First XV<br />

I would like to acknowledge all<br />

Open Rugby players and thank<br />

them for their efforts over the<br />

years playing Rugby at Terrace.<br />

These young men, along with<br />

the First XV, have played Rugby<br />

at Terrace, some since Year 5 in<br />

2007. Your parents have supported<br />

you through all those<br />

years… win, lose or draw. The<br />

Terrace Community is very<br />

proud of you and in your final<br />

year at Terrace we want to publically<br />

thank- you for pulling on<br />

the Red and Black jersey over<br />

many years.<br />

I would also like to take this opportunity<br />

to thank the coaches<br />

Anthony Gibb and Ben<br />

McCormack and manager<br />

Patrick Howell for their efforts. I<br />

also would like to acknowledge<br />

the efforts of our strength and<br />

conditioning coaches Simon<br />

Price and Jono Roussetos and<br />

physio David Bick.<br />

The First XV squad has shown<br />

good pre-season form, including<br />

on tour to Melbourne playing St<br />

Kevin’s College, practice matches<br />

against Ipswich Grammar<br />

School, Nudgee College and last<br />

weekend Brisbane Boys College.<br />

I am confident the First XV head<br />

into today’s game well prepared<br />

to take on BGS.<br />

A special mention to the First<br />

XV captain Connor Moroney on<br />

his selection in the Australian<br />

Schoolboys team. – Tyron Mandrusiak<br />
