Wondai Wolves hosted the last round of the South Burnett rugby league competition in style last Saturday with a cancer fundraiser and their annual Ladies Day.
A marquee was erected at Wondai Sportsground as the usual venue, the Wolves Clubhouse, was still in the hands of the builders who are constructing a new downstairs area.
There was quizzes, games and a fashions competition as well as drinks, food and lots and lots of purple – the colour for pancreatic cancer.
The Wolves were raising funds for Pankind, a charity dedicated to improving the outcomes for people affected by this cancer.
Out on the field, ladder leaders Cherbourg stamped their dominance over second-placed Kingaroy; while Murgon defeated Wondai in a much closer game.
Both games will be reprised on August 16 at Blackbutt, with Murgon v Wondai in the sudden-death minor semi-final and Cherbourg v Kingaroy in the major semi.
