🏉🔥 BARBARIANS 1st XV — FINALS DAY! 🔥🏉

What a way to finish our time at the U18 Boys Central Co-Ed Rugby Festival in Napier! 💪

The boys came out firing on Wednesday for Finals Day, putting together a dominant 46–0 victory over St Peter’s to book their spot in the semifinals. 🔥

Next up was Wairoa, and the Baa-Baas continued their charge with a strong 36–10 semifinal win! 💥

🏆 FINAL:
Barbarians 12–19 Whakatāne
Sadly, the boys fell just short in the final, but what a tournament and what an effort from the team! 👏💯

🥈 Runners-up
💪 Plenty of fight
🔥 Plenty of potential
🚀 Building for next year!

A massive congratulations to the players and coaches for an awesome few days of rugby, food and fun (plus some average singing). The future is looking bright for the Baa-Baas! 👊

UP THE BAA-BAAS! 🔥🏉
