Under-7s rugby

Round two of the Under-7s Green competition saw Woy Woy Junior Rugby League Club take on The Entrance at Edsacc Oval on April 24.

The team played like "champion Roosters" despite going down 24 to 18 at full time, according to club secretary Mr Russell Downey.

"Our boys took the field against a determined The Entrance side that opened the scoring early," Mr Downey said.

"Not to be put off by this our boys muscled up and tackled and attacked with true Rooster spirit.

"Great tries went to Scott Mateer (and a goal), Ethan Walsh and Bailey Murphy.

"Bailey Wolfe made some beautiful runs including one classic down the side line.

"Our two big boys Bailey Murphy and Jake Kay were strong through the middle in their first official game in the Red and White, showing they will be a force to be reckoned with.

"Aidan Downey demonstrated that he's got what it takes with some strong tackling and a beautiful off-load to Nathan Redhead.

"Captain for the day Ethan Walsh showed he is a strong rangy runner making some classic breaks and scoring a great try.

"And as always, Nathan Redhead tackled all day looking for more work all the time.

"Under-6s Green coach James Cooper made the dash from Rogers Park to Edsacc with troops Jordan Cooper, Cooper Wilesmith and Brayden Angell to back up for us with some great support by all three boys.

"Rick Redhead stood in for coach Pete Duggan."
