Outram Falcons
The Outram Falcons had their first win of the season against SPC 7-0. The girls are starting to get the hang of the game and even managed to open up the court on a few occasions. Cheyenne F did some great defence work at WA, passing nicely to Jessica S and getting the ball back to the shooters where Lily J did very well with her shooting

Hockey
June 12
Turf Hockey
This week saw the start of the second round and the team came up against Filadelfios Combined, whom they met 1st up. This was probably the best game of the season, with accurate passing and great support play. They came away with a 3-0 win with goals to Mitchell R(2) and Georgia B. Player of the day was Mitchell R for his consistant high standards and his awesome goal scoring.
Mosgiel Hockey was against Elmgrove and although the team played hard they couldn't get any goals through. They went down 0-2. Player of the day was Blake V for his strong defence and good positional play.
Also, a big thankyou to the McMillan family for the donation of the player of the day trophy.
June 19
The team went down 0-1 on a hard fought match against DNT combined. The passing was off tonight, and as a result they spent much of the game chasing the ball, but there was some amazing defence which keep the score to the single goal. The team had some opportunities and were unlucky not to convert them. Player of the day was Bailey M for his 110% effort and hard running at the many penalty corners.

Rugby 10's vs St Mary's
Outram played St Mary's today in the round robin match of the ORFU 10's competition. St Mary's have been the team to beat in the competition. From the first whistle Outram were more determined and constantly disrupted St Mary's ruck ball. Celine T scored a great try bumping off numerous would be tacklers and scoring under the posts. This set the tone of the match with Outram constructing some great tries moving the ball through the backline finding space. Outram went on to win the game 41-19. Players to impress were Celine T, Jordan B, Joseph M and Daniel G. Outram have now secured a grand final spot which is the 2nd year in a row that Outram have qualified for the grand final. Weather permitting the grand final will be played at Carisbrook.

Reds Miniball
Outram Red vs. Elmgrove Black
Not a pretty match for the Reds parents to watch this time round. The Reds came up against a well organised and determined team that stuck to their game plan. They shut out the Reds from shooting easily and had players marking ours the whole time. Unfortunately our guys couldn’t pull off the win, try as they might. Not a good game for the Reds this time but there were some great individual efforts, with Nicholas McA putting up the most reliable shots and Sarah J defending well. Player of the day went to Malachi B for playing with commitment and defending brilliantly with a huge bump on his forehead that was nearly blocking his vision! Score: 25/24 to Elmgrove Black

The team came away with another win: 2-0 against DNT Combined.
Goal scorers were Mitchell and Georgia. The support play is continuing to improve and the team is working the ball up the field well. Keep it up!! Player of the day was Will C for his great positional play. The team had a really good coaching session with Mark Smithells from Otago hockey so are looking forward to trying out their new skills this week.

Outram vs Pirates- Rippa Rugby
On the 9th of June after school, one student from each year group at Outram School was lucky enough to meet the All Blacks at the Edgar Centre to play a game of rippa for 14 minutes.
Each team had one All Black to help them and Ref. Outram School were lucky enough to be the only school there, as the rest were from rugby clubs i.e West Taieri Rugby Club. In our team there was, Max N, Celine T , Mitchell R, Samuel R, Charlie G, Tessa B, Hayden R and the AllBlack - John Afoa. When we met him we were gobsmacked at how big he was. As we were talking to him , the horn blew and it was time for the game. Our opposition was the Pirates Rugby Club, and there AllBlack was Brendon Lenard. In the first 5 minutes we were down by 2 tries, but 2 minutes later the Juniors were fired up, sprinting through the oppositions defence. John Afoa was pretty awesome as he let us away with a few knock on's , but apart from that we were doing fine. Into the second half, the Pirates threw us around a bit scoring a few tries, but yet again our Juniors powered through giving us a great chance of winning. The horn blew for the last time and that was the game, we ended up winning 9-7. We all got John Afoa's signature and also Joe Rockococos. It was an exhilarating game to watch and to play and we ended up winning which we were all proud of.
