The Sabres rugby team had their championship finals this evening at Maple Grove. Our very undersized “mighty mite” squad did it again this year and are the for the 3rd time in a row. We couldn’t be more proud to get to coach this very eclectic group and I know for many rugby has become their safe space. The final scores are really irrelevant, but they beat their rivals Stonewall Collegiate in the semis by a score of 10-5 and then finished the night against St. Mary’s Academy. The score of the championship final was 19-12.

Our graduating players this year are Jayla Chen, who has been a leader and captain on our team for years, Tayler Huska and Kayla Klassen. A handful of our grade 9-11 girls will also be playing rugby in the Manitoba Games this summer in Dauphin, MB with me.

Coaches Tahnee Grosskopf and Tamra Yorke
