Il “Piacentino” Kelly Rolleston Vice-Allenatore Della Nazionale Italiana Di Rugby a 13 Ai Mondiali in Australia Il “piacentino” Kelly Rolleston vice-allenatore della nazionale italiana di Rugby a 13 ai Mondiali in Australia Ci sarà anche un piacentino (seppure d’adozione) come Kelly Rolleston ai campionati mondiali di rugby a 13 in programma in Australia, Nuova Zelanda e Papua Nuova Guinea a partire dal 26 ottobre e fino al 2 dicembre. Rolleston, originario proprio della Nuova Zelanda, è direttore tecnico del Piacenza Rugby e risiede nella nostra provincia da una ventina d’anni. Seguirà la nazionale come assistente allenatore insieme ad Anthony Minichiello. I due saranno i vice del coach Cameron Ciraldo. Si tratta della quindicesima edizione di questo campionato che vedrà coinvolte quattordici squadre nazionali (Australia, Fiji, Francia, Inghilterra, Nuova Zelanda, Papua Nuova Guinea, Samoa, Scozia, Galles, Irlanda, Italia, Tonga, Stati Uniti, Libano). La nostra nazionale giocherà, nei prossimi giorni, una prima amichevole contro il Tonga, una delle squadre tecnicamente più forti del campionato. Fra una decina di giorni inizierà la competizione vera e propria; l’Italia giocherà nel gruppo D contro Fiji, Stati Uniti ed una partita intergruppo contro l’Irlanda. “L’obiettivo – ci dice Rolleston è sicuramente quello di passare il turno. Non sarà facile perché Fiji ha una squadra decisamente forte, con degli ottimi giocatori. Ce la metteremo tutta anche perché se si passa il turno si è direttamente qualificati per il campionato mondiale successivo”. Il rugby a 13 (Rugby League o Rugby XIII) è una delle principali varianti professionistiche del rugby. E’ una disciplina molto diversa dal rugby tradizionale, quello a 15 (Rugby Union) e meno nota nonostante sia nata nel 1895, l’anno del cosiddetto scisma che portò alla creazione di due distinte versioni del rugby. In realtà originariamente sia Union sia League giocavano con 15 uomini in campo e con le stesse regole. Bisognerà attendere il 1907 perché si differenzino. Molto diffuso in Oceania il rugby a 13 è una variante più “fisica” del normale rugby e ha alcune similitudini con il football americano. Differente anche il punteggio: la meta vale 4 punti, la trasformazione, il piazzato 2 ed il drop 1. Molti fra gli atleti della rappresentativa italiana sono giovani nati in Australia ma oriundi italiani anche se, pian piano, lo sport si sta diffondendo nella penisola e sta conquistando nuovi adepti. «Nel rugby a 13 – ci spiega Rolleston – non ci sono le touche quindi ogni volta che la palla esce c’è la mischia. Dopo che sei stato placcato hai sei tentativi per segnare. Simile al rugby toccato, è molto difficile, fisico. Richiede una preparazione atletica diversa perché dopo ogni placcaggio devi tornare indietro di dieci metri. Questi ragazzi sono molto allenati. E’ uno sport estremamente veloce, spettacolare, facile da capire anche per chi non ha mai visto una partita di rugby. In Australia è seguito allo stesso livello del Super Rugby. La nostra squadra è composta da due ragazzi che provengono dal campionato italiano, un italo inglese, un italo francese. Gli altri sono oriundi italiani e vengono dal campionato australiano. Abbiamo fatto le qualificazioni lo scorso anno, vincendo contro la Serbia e perdendo contro il Galles. Abbiamo dovuto disputare i play off con la Russia; vincendo con un buon margine ci siamo qualificati.

    THE ACTION KICKS OFF THIS SATURDAY NIGHT Sir Peter Leitch Club Newsletter RLWC 2017 24th October 2017 It’s 4 days until the Kiwis play # their first game of the 2017 RLWC 193 Back The Kiwis By Enjoying Lunch By David Kemeys Former Sunday Star-Times Editor, Former Editor-in-Chief Suburban Newspapers, Long Suffering Warriors Fan E ARE only days from the kick-off of the 2017 Rugby League World Cup, with Australia and England W– in what will be a hell of a match - doing the honours on Friday night. Of course the Kiwis take on Samoa on Saturday night at Mt Smart, and that one should be a good game too. League legend Olsen Filipaina is taking the ball out, which is pretty cool given he has represented the Kiwis and Samoa. The game I am looking forward to is the Kiwis v Tonga in Hamilton, because there is not going to be a lot of love lost when those two sides meet, after everything that has gone on. Before a ball is kicked I have the Kiwis lunch at the Ellerslie Events Centre to look forward to on Friday. When Pete asked if I would take it on with Gordon Gibbons and Tony Feasey, I foolishly said yes, not want- ing to let Pete down. But in truth Gordon has been amazing and we have an incredible line-up of Kiwis greats taking to the stage, and players with a long history of World Cup and test glory in attendance. I have been to several of Peter’s Kiwis lunches and enjoyed every one of them.

  • Nsw Department of Education & Training
    History of the Region Prior to 1969: The Region now known as Sydney South West was absorbed into the Education Regions of Metropolitan West and St. George. During 1969: The Education Region of Liverpool was established, but it was not until 1970 that many of the schools now in the Region came under Liverpool. The Liverpool Region Schools Sports Association was formed. The new Region's colours were bottle green and tangerine, with its emblem being the 'LIVERBIRD' originating off Liverpool City's Coat of Arms. During 1982: The name of the Region was changed to Metropolitan South West, in response to areas such as Campbelltown, Camden, Fairfield and Bankstown developing within the Region. With the change in name the Sports Association changed its colours to bottle green and white. During 1997: With the restructure of the Department of School Education, regions were dismantled and Areas came into existence. The Association was named Sydney South West Area. We retained our colours and emblem. Presently: The Association develops Talented Child Programs in over 30 sports which can be accessed by the 110,000 students of the Region. It also aims at improving school sporting programs by increasing involvement of staff and students. Even in our short history the Region has produced many outstanding athletes who have gone on to represent their country at the Open Age group. This list is far from complete and any assistance you may offer on the Region's Sporting History please do not hesitate to phone, write or fax the Regional Sports Office. Athletics
