It had to happen. The final high school game representing Garsies. End of the school rugby season. It had been a character forming year. It took some very serious guts and determination to get through it. Those first months of the training camp were super hard. And his rugby game went to a completely different level due to the very high level of coaching offered by this school. So all in all, this was a really, really good year for Master Liam. He made many new friends, he played a lot of hard rugby, and he trained like a beast.
Friday, 7 August at 15:30 in the afternoon, he ran out for the 4th team against Dr E.G. Jansen from Boksburg. A field - the famous Berepark!
Bittersweet, yet so satisfying. Hard game! In the beginning it looked as if Jansen were going to run away with it. But Garsies fought back hard and the game ended with a 31 to 28 loss. 5 tries to 4 for Garsies, and a very good game for our dude. To say he was tired and sore after is an understatement. But even though his heart was sore that this chapter has now come to an end, he was happy that his own game was solid.
And he was already looking forward to Monday the 10th. The trials for the yearly IPT Blue Bulls team.
