Bactrians outpaced by Lady Rams in season debut

The Cobar Bactrians kicked off their first game of the season at home. 

With Lesley Tiffen running onto a kick chase scoring early, followed by a mid-field break through the middle by Georgie Buckman. 

Unfortunately, Coonamble stamina proved too strong for the Cobar Bactrians closing the game out with the score board reflecting 2-7, Coonamble's way. 

The coaches were still proud of all of the girl's efforts and have a great understanding on things that the girls need to improve on, identifying weaknesses and implementing ways to combat them as a team at training.

Camels keep up until final minutes

Cobar Camels were off to an impressive start with Will Peckham scoring off the kick off to commence the game.

Conversion was successful by Kody Martin. Kody Martin displayed a good old 'show and go' movement straight through the middle to award himself a try and a successful conversion right under the goal post.

Next up to cross the line was camel's young gun Lochlan Ford who unfortunately sustained an injury towards the end of the game. 

Tony Jacklin (coach) was last to add more points onto the Camels scoreboard, unfortunately the Camels didn't get the win, with a final score of 25-38 Coonamble's way, however the vibes were great and the coaches were pleased to see everyone's dedication to training paying off especially with the boys performance.
