The skills session on Friday held by the ARU High Performance staff and Wallabies skills coaches was an invaluable to the athletes. The 7’s Rugby on Saturday was an opportunity for the players to show their skills against the other Academies as well as in front of the Wallabies coach Robbie Deans. The under 18’s, with the help of some players from other Academies finished equal first. The combined team lost their first three games before turning things around winning their next three to progress through to the final which ended in a draw. Notable performances were from Sturat Mill and Harry Boyce. The two 16’s teams had mixed results with one team winning 2 out of 4 and the other winning 1 out of 4. Please check with Tony LS, but the notable performances from my point of view were Tommy Sawden and Daniel Bunten. Jay Tregonning 2012 IAS Rugby Union Head Coach
