Last season was a tremendous one for Waverley College rugby and this year looks very exciting as well. With 41 boys and 5 staff going on a New Zealand Rugby Tour in April, changes in the draw for the 2017 season as well as the talented new U13 group coming through it will be a challenging but rewarding season for all. I want to make special mention of the Rugby Supporter Group and their ongoing support and hard work and we hope to have some new members again this year. Waverley College rugby has a long and rich history which has included producing a number of Wallabies, Australian and NSW Schoolboys. When Waverley is strong at rugby, then the other CAS rugby teams are as well! I hope all boys and coaches continue the Waverley College style of fierce but fair play; running rugby with the multiple phases that many opposition schools find hard to defeat. I am looking forward to a great season in which our students demonstrate outstanding sportsmanship and we retain the ‘Henry Plume’ Shield for 2017. Good luck for the season and ‘Go the Waves!’ Stephen O’Donnell Director of Co-curriculum RUGBY 2017 TEAM GUIDE 3 Welcome from the Convenor of Rugby 2016 was a brilliant year for Waverley College in a number of ways.
