Junior rugby league will return to its regular format this weekend after last weekend’s trial at TJ O’Neill Oval of holding all games in the one location.
SBJRL Secretary/Registrar Lisa Weir said Kingaroy club would now prepare a report back on how the trial day went.
Nanango, which hosted a smaller version of the combined junior round the previous weekend, will also report back.
“We will know something a bit later in the year if we will go ahead with that program for next year,” Lisa said.
This weekend is the last round of fixtures in the Junior Rugby League competition ahead of the major semi-finals which will be played at Murgon on August 24.
