Central Scorpions win the regional club championship
Announcement
The Central Scorpions state league region was awarded the regional club championship for the Summer 2005 season during the Touch SA presentations at the Arkaba Hotel on Sunday night. It was a combined achievement, assisted by the Mixed Open team who beat the Northern Vipers 5-4 in the Grand Final, even after losing to the Vipers by 2 TDs in the minor round. The Junior Mixed team were impressive and undefeated all weekend, and finished with a Grand Final victory over the South West Wolves 5-2. The Men's Open team narrowly missed out on the finals after they lost their opening game 3-4 to the eventual winners, but finished the weekend with a victory over the Northern Vipers 10-3 to claim 3rd spot. The Women's Open team finished 4th overall, narrowly loosing 4-6 to the Wolves twice, but managed a convincing 14-0 victory over the Rams.
On behalf of the Central Scorpions, I would like to thank all players, coaches, and team managers who ensured the success and professionalism of each of our state league teams. A special mention must go to our referees who represented the region, refereeing an amazing amount of games over the weekend ensured that our region received vital club championship points. I would like to personally thank Jon Hall, Chris Denison-Smith, David Ludlow, Neale Burton, John Schofield, and Indra Garner and hope that you can all make it to our presentation lunch (details below).
