| Our U8 and U10 were again unbeaten against Manhattan Beach and Santa Monica. The kids had a great time and really enjoyed the Pizza at the end. Our U12s played a tournament with some of the Manattan and SMRC kids. We had four teams with Wolverines Navy winning it all.
The tackling ,commitment was amazing. The kids are really strating to get the hang of what they should be doing and it is very fulfilling to see how fast they are improving.
At the end we played a full field 13 v 13 game and there were some awesome tries scored.
More of the same this upcoming weekend. |

| Well for those of you who made it to Santa Monica this past weekend, I am sure all of you will attest to the tremendous amount of fun that all the kids had. We had over 50 kids there , and the older kids got their first taste of tackle rugby and were amazing. Our U8 and u10s were unbeaten.
The quality and commitment to tackling was exceptional. The best thing was seeing the enjoyment on the kids faces |

| The Wolverines sent a U12 team to the IRB7's tournament at Home Depot center on Saturday and had a very successful outing. It was the first tournament for all the young Wolverines and they handled themselves well, losing the first game 3 tries to one and winning the second by the same score.
Cody Bahr kept the ball moving at Flyhalf and younger brother Dylan showed flashes of his blistering speed from center and out on the wing. Hunter Blythe showed great composure at scrumhalf. Kyle Espinoza and Sean Pawlak played prop like old pros even though they'd just learned the positions. Ohelani Landi and Simaron Mander hooked the ball cleanly and the two nine year olds weren't fazed by their twelve year old opponents. Jesse Mander also got in a little work at prop before injuring his arm. Gianni Pink had a great breakaway that nearly ended in a try and Taylor Espinoza ran rings around the opposition.
All the boys played tough defense and had a great time. The biggest complaint was that we only got in two games... more to come lads, more to come. |
