Wednesday night saw a high quality Suncoast Power under 14 “intra club” practice match in which all players performed admirably as they made efforts to impress the selectors. Whilst looking for a balanced team/squad to move forward the selectors also viewed players in areas of accountability, performing a task and team game plan needs.
The match was hotly contested and as the game went on further it began to open up to an encouraging skilful level that saw players running hard to position and linking well with each other.
Those who have been around Suncoast Power 14’s for some time were most impressed with the will of the players in their endeavours to play a good brand of footy.
From this point the squad of 29 Sunshine Coast players will be joined by a number of players from the Wide Bay region who will press for selection in the Suncoast Power State Championships squad of 25. The State Championships are to be played on the Gold Coast in the week of Monday 27th June to Friday 1st July – games played Monday, Wednesday and Friday with recovery sessions on the Tuesday and Thursday.
So training continues from next Monday with a practice match scheduled against the Northern Raiders (North Brisbane rep team) on Wednesday 8th June that will see the squad near the final team makeup.
Thanks to all the boys who have taken opportunity to participate in the program to date and the word is simple to those unfortunate to be departing the squad at this point continue to work hard on your game and skills and with desire further representative opportunities can present.
