Tiaden, N.Townsend,B. Weyer. Summary of Season: Once again our "learners" were pitched too soon into com petitive rugby and it took several games to evolve team cohesion and some expertise. Once settled the C's emerged as a useful side with highlights being the defeats of College and Glenwood. Unfortunately illnesses in higher teams "robbed" vital players in our last two encounters which might also have gone our way.Sound captaincy and a keen team spirit were our greatest assets.

Summary of Season: Although rugby was a new experience to most of these players, they developed well and produced some good rugby. The team requirements of the A, B and C teams made it difficult to build up combinations and understand ing between players. Many of the players will be playing in the under 13 age group again next year and they will have benefited from this year's experience.

Once again the Kearsney shotists gave a good account of themselves this season, maintaining a high standard of marksmanship and being well known as the team with the most spirit at all the local competitions. In March this year twelve shotists travelled to Port Shepstone to compete in a quadrangular shoot. The shotists were accommodated at the Oribi Command Headquarters. The competition, between Kearsney, Pinetown, Glenwood and Port Shepstone High was won by Kearsney. This com petition has become an annual event and next year eight schools are expected to compete. Due to the Kearsney shooting range being condemned by the army we were unable to host any competitions at Kearsney this year. The highlight of the season was once again the Regional Cadet Bisley in which 18 teams from 9 schools competed. Our Junior team once again won the Junior Brick Shooting trophy and received certificates of merit for their achieve ment. B. Street was chosen for the Durban and District team which represented Group 10 at the Natal championships held at Merrivale. Kearsney came fourth overall in the com petition being beaten by Pinetown, Port Shepstone and Glenwood. In the Inter-Cadet Detachment competition 0. Geekie, B. Street, A. Russell-Boulton and C. Ashby were all awarded Sharpshooter badges for scoring at least 90%. Nine other boys attained First Class shotist badges for scoring between 80% and 90% and 11 boys were awarded Second Class shotist badges, having achieved between 70% and 80%. The Inter-House competition was this year won by Finningley who narrowly beat Gillingham by only 32 points. The senior champion this year was B. Street who beat O. Geekie by 5 points and third was D. Meaker. Junior Champion was A. Veen who managed to beat T. Shillington by only 3 points. Best overall shotist of the year was B. Street. Colours were awarded to O.Geekie and B. Street.
