AT ERINDALE VIKINGS 21 The Canberra Vikings have assembled for their 2019 NRC season, which commences on August 31 2019 in Melbourne. Our boys spend their first two weeks on the road, before welcoming City to Viking Park on the 14th of September.

The Vikings squad is brimming with talent and consists of Wallabies, Brumbies and some of the local John I Dent competitions rising stars.

Led by Head Coach Nick Scrivener, the Vikings, who reached the semi-final stage last season only to fall to the Fijian Drua in the Pacific Islands, have named a strong-looking group of players that includes full Wallabies internationals Tom Banks, Joe Powell, and Blake Enever.

There’s a real emphasis on youth amongst the group with promising young talent such as Junior Wallabies props Bo Abra and Angus Wagner, hooker Lachlan Lonergan, and backs Noah Lolesio, Bayley Kuenzle and Len Ikitau, set to take the tournament by storm.

Lock forward has been named as Captain of the Canberra Vikings team that will compete in the 2020 National Rugby Championship (NRC) which kicks off this weekend. Swain, who was part of the Plus500 Brumbies squad that reached the Semi-Finals of in 2019, played a dozen matches in the tournament having made his debut at that level the year before.

The Brisbane-born second-rower is no stranger to the NRC having played seventeen times for the Vikings since his debut in a 2016 match away to the Sydney Rays and will become the seventh player to lead the Vikings in the competition following in the footsteps of Fotu Auelua, Jarrad Butler, Robbie Coleman, Blake Enever, and Ben Hyne.

“It’s a huge privilege to be named captain this year,” Swain said of his appointment as skipper of the squad. “Having been in this environment and learning from guys like Cusack and Hyney, it’s an opportunity that I’ll definitely relish.

The Canberra Vikings National Rugby Championship challenge for 2019 began with a visit to Melbourne to take on the Rising on Saturday 31 August, and will include four home matches, all at Viking Park.

The Vikings Group would like to sincerely thank our returning and new sponsors of the side, whose support of Rugby in Australia is much welcomed.

We all look forward to welcoming rugby fans to the home of the Vikings, right here at Erindale on Viking Park. 2019 Canberra Vikings

Entry to the park is free, so we hope you can join us for what promises to be an entertaining spectacle of running rugby.

Coaching sessions for juniors make use of the BWF Schools Badminton programme (https://shuttletime.bwfbadminton. com/), focusing on the fundamentals of the game from basic badminton skills, eye/hand co-ordination and court movement. Advanced sessions are tailored to suit participants playing levels, focusing on footwork, technical and tactical aspects through sparring and multi-feed drills.

Badminton has gained popularity and demand for coaching is on the rise in the Territory. The Club has a growing waiting list with demand exceeding court facilities. The Club is supported by the Vikings Group in making badminton more accessible and developing the sport at the grass root level, nurturing the young to enjoy the sport and providing a pathway for State representation.

A successful story from TVBC is our Junior member Pascal Souksavat. Pascal is a Vikings Group 2019 scholarship recipient, and the Territory’s sole representative, currently competing in the U19 Badminton Australian Championship (7-13 Jul 2019) in Mandurah, Perth.
