Three players from the Clarkson Year 9/10 Rugby League Academy have made their school form count on the representative field by making the WA Rugby League Under 15's State Schoolboys side. Club coaches and selectors recognised a significant improvement in core skills and fitness levels of all students from Specialist Schools.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

On Thursday 21st March a small band of Year 8 students took the field at Curtin University to play their first ever rugby league game for the school.  Despite never having played as a team, and in some cases never having played the game before, they won!

Blakes resume is sensational:

On Monday 15th April, Clarkson Community High School’s Year 9 Specialist League Rugby Squad competed in the Champion Schools’ Carnival at Charles Riley Reserve, North Beach.

The CCHS team displayed outstanding rugby league and personal skills throughout the day.  The sense of commitment and responsibility shown by the boys in the way they approached the contest, treated the officials and their opponents and maintained their team area was fantastic to see.  Our boys were a credit to themselves, their families and our school being first to assist in the clean up and pack up after the competition and being faultless in the courtesy and respect displayed all day.

Clarkson rugby league representatives in the Combined Specialist Schoolboys (red) and Pirates Development (white) Squads met in a hard fought match on Saturday 2nd March at Ken Allen Reserve, Hilton

The game was the first of the season for the Pirates and the Combined Specialist Schoolboy's squads and was played as a curtain raiser for the seniors game.  CCHS has a number of talented players of various age groups in both teams who move up through our specialist rugby league program to be selected for these development squads.

The score was an overwhelming win to the Pirates squad.  The Pirates squad is basically the state squad and the Combined Specialist Schoolboy's Squad is the next level up, and these boys often are promoted as a result of these games.  The schoolboys squad had basically had one training session prior to the game, whereas the Pirates boys have trained together for sometime.
There should be more good news coming on the rugby league front with so many talented players in our ranks.
