AFL Report
Harrup Park was the venue for the Capricornia AFL trials on the 18th-19th April. Mackay was well served by representatives from state and independent schools across the district.
The boys played four games with wins against Keppel Coast, Port Curtis and a combined Central Highlands/Denham sides. Our only defeat was against a committed Rockhampton side which stifled our attacking flair by bottling the ball up in the wet and muddy conditions.
Mackay manager Chris Casey said, “We were very happy with the performances from all the players and considering the wet weather the boys played with a lot of enthusiasm and skill.”
Nine boys were selected to represent the Capricornia team at the State carnival in Cairns. The boys were Nick Kempe, Jayde Mellross, Brenton Murray, Braden DeAngelis, Willam Johnson, Wesley Johnson, Harrison Arnold, Kade Gaffney and Jack Liddelow.
