Pinks celebrate first season
Remember this lot? The Dee Why Pinks - the world's youngest all-girl rugby team from Manly, near to Sydney, and probably a very good explanation for Australian sporting success (because it couldn't happen here - RFU wouldn't allow it as they are "too young").
Anyway the Pinks have just finished their first season with a reliable core of players that has now grown to 13, plus a number of occasionals. They now go into their summer break ready and raring to go as Under 7s, though the squad size and age range is such that they may well be able to keep an Under 6 team going as well.
How many of the girls will be swapping pink-and white for green-and-gold in time for the 2030 World Cup?
