8th Grade

The MBFC 8th Grade travelled over to Whenuakite on Saturday. The kids all did a great job putting some of our new skills from training into action. Oak Sunn and Wallace Roberts were our two players of the day both getting very involved, contributing on attack and great tackles in defence.

12th Grade Sharks

Today we played Whenuakite. It was a brilliant game played by 2 teams with high intensity and lots of action. It was non stop from the first whistle keeping the parents on their toes. Players of the day for Mercury Bay were Jaxon Davies and Dylan Field and Kayleb Cornwall was given player of the day from Whenuakite. Goals scored Kayleb Cornwall x 2, Reef Harvard x 2 and Luke Collins.

Junior Mixed Team

Soaked, defeated, but still having fun was the story when our mixed team was knocked out of the Junior Boys A Cup. Hamilton Boys has 10 teams, and we were away against a Div 2 side who played to a high standard and had plenty of subs available to them. Our Mercury Bay team is a lot younger and due to travel, illness and injury didn't have any subs to make in the second half. Despite the odds, our team played well, and fought so bravely that they earnt the respect of their opponents and were applauded by the Hamilton team as they departed the field. A classy touch from a classy team, who knew they had been made to work harder than the 6:0 scoreline suggested. Good luck in the next round Hamilton, and well done to our warriors for sticking to our game plan. Player of the day was Tylar Cornwall who defended well and also sparked some attacks.
