Montfort Under-13 Win Manulife International Youth 10s Plate Championship



Well Done To The Under-13s squad for pulling through and winning the Manulife International Youth 10s Plate Championship on Saturday afternoon at the Singapore Polo Club.

In a hard-fought final against the Centaurus Under-13s, our players beat Centaurus by three tries to one.

The Under-13s had started the tournament slowly but had recovered by the time of the Plate Final. Many hard tackles were meted out to the Centaurus Under-13s. This win shows that with proper motivation and determination we can compete against the bigger boys.

The win shows that physical size does not matter in rugby, but what counts is the size of the heart and collective strength of the Montfort team.

A special mention to the Monfort Under-16 team who made it to the Plate Final but lost to Blacks Under-16 team. But take heart Monfortian Under-16 players, it was a close match.
