Outram School Touch by Cam M

Outram blues
The Blues were fired up coming into their exhibition game against Fairfield A. As they had been off touch for at least six weeks and were hungry to get back into it. Outram had a slightly different team this year but that didn't stop them from playing a good flowing game easily beating Fairfield 15-1! Sending a warning to the rest of the teams. Hopefully a sign of another unbeaten season this year again!

Outram Silver and Blacks
Both teams were starting out at playing touch this year but they had already shown a lot of skills in practice for teams that have not played touch ever. Both teams played good games winning their games by good margins. Standouts from Outram teams on the day were Logan G and Sam R who showed good speed. Hopefully these guys get to play each other in the final!

Great Start to Touch Season for Outram School

Yesterday was the start of the 2009 Taieri Junior module Touch season. Outram School has 6 teams entered in the competition. Of the 6 teams playing yeaterday only one team had a loss. The Blues, Reds, Silvers and Blacks all had good wins while the Maroons had a draw with Fairfield School. This was a great result for Outram School considering that it was the first ever Touch game for most of the Outram School players!
