Central Scorpions Touch Association

After 2 postponed rounds due to wet weather, the 2004 Winter state league season finally kicked off on Sunday 15th August with “Round 2”.

The mixed opens team represented the club in the first game, but unfortunately went down 0-6 to a more experienced South West Wolves team. This was a good chance for the mixed juniors to have a run who had a bye this week, which was lucky due to dwindling numbers in the mixed opens side.

The women’s team, without star coach Matt Schinckel, fought hard in the first half but was down 0-2 and Mel Day (injury) at half time. The half time address by the “coach of the Day” inspired Nicole Treleaven to score 3 TDs in the second half. Unfortunately, this was not enough as they went down 3-4 to the Vipers.

The new look men’s open team played the young Wolves team led by Jezza and Gav. The Scorps got off to a good first half, holding the Wolves scoreless and led 2-0 at half time. This heated game was 2-2 shortly after half time before Colm Maguire led the way to victory. The final score was 6-4.
