Moree's carnival of junior rugby

After last week’s rain organisers were worried about needing to cancel, but as the weather cleared, and after juggling a few fields around, the carnival went ahead and was a “massive” success. 

Players travelled from as far as Scone, Gunnedah and Tamworth. 

Secretary, Justin Barnes, said about 500 children attended, plus parents, which was great for the town’s economy.

A score wasn’t kept on the day, and Barnes said the games played were “just for fun”.

Volunteers from the seniors also helped referee, in the canteen and on the barbecue.
