The future of rugby league in the South Burnett … the Blackbutt-Timbertowners’ U6s line up to receive their gifts<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

July 28, 2023<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Wondai Wolves’ Mini Mods junior rugby league carnival has wrapped up for another year, after a “maxi” effort by volunteers, parents and, of course, the more than 1100 young players.<\/p>\n

Teams from 22 clubs – including all six South Burnett sides – lined up in games from Under 6s through to Under 12s last Saturday.<\/p>\n

The round robin games, played with modified rules, were spread across nine fields at the Wondai Sportsground.<\/p>\n

According to figures released by the Wolves, there were 83 teams, consisting of 1107 players plus officials and supporters.<\/p>\n

Each player received a gift from the club after their age category games wrapped up.<\/p>\n

A total of 61 hours of football were played, ie. 203 matches.<\/p>\n

And the canteen volunteers were kept busy, serving up 1248 cups of chips!<\/p>\n

The South Burnett Rugby League competition returns to normal this weekend, with junior teams in action at Nanango on Saturday (see below).<\/strong><\/p>\n
