Dolphin juniors end on a high

Noosa Dolphins Rugby Union Club has been a big part of these kids lives, some since they kicked off in U6s. They have recently completed their stint as Juniors in the U 18 Junior Colts with some very impressive results. They won the Sunshine Coast Rugby Union U18 Junior Colts Competition and narrowly missed taking home the Southern Stampede Gold Coast U18 Competition going down by 2 points. It’s not just about bringing home the trophy as much as it is about raising good humans, watching them grow from boys to men in a family friendly Club that has taught them much more than the sport.

Thanks to Jason, Pinky, Andres and Wendy for a terrific season/ seasons. Your guidance, mentoring and love put into our kids is appreciated beyond words. Just doing it for the good of the game, Club and community, but it’s so much more than that. You have assisted us in teaching our children life skills, especially in the age you took them on which has taken them from teenagers to young men and women. We thank and acknowledge you for giving up your time, especially when games were on the Gold Coast that went over and above the call of duty.

We would now like to acknowledge past coaches, managers and committee members that have played a part in our player’s journey from U6’s to Junior Colts (if we have missed someone we apologise).

Kerry, Sean, Kelly, Bryan, Tony G, Tony C, Tony H, Glen, Zoe, Anita, Krissy, Annie, Dim, Lanie, Donna, Kirrily, Wade, Sam, Kip, Joanna, DJ, Justin, Luke H, Luke B, Jo, JD, Jake and Filthy Phil.

Thank you all for taking the time to do good things.

We would also especially like to acknowledge all parents, families and supporters that turn up most weeks. Driving all over the Coast, washing the smelly jerseys and waiting in various emergency rooms and doctors surgeries around the Coast. This has been a huge part of all of our lives.

We believe our boys (and girl Pearl) have developed from these mentors in their lives- they have become good people and adults because of all of this involvement. It truly has been a ‘village to raise a child’ environment.

On behalf of all grateful parents we would like to wish our players well in their senior rugby career aswell as their personal careers from here on in. One thing we know for sure is that the bond and the friendship developed over these years playing team rugby will stay with our players forever.

Finally to the players, thanks for being the best you can be and thanks for allowing us to watch you develop. Go the Finn’s, Reds, Whites, Dolphins and whatever else we have been named over the years.

Noosa Dolphins Rugby Union Club- you bloody beauty!
