Juniors lead the charge

24 Jun, 2009 05:00 AM
THE senior Two Blues may be struggling, but the juniors have again shown why Parramatta is one of the great rugby nurseries.

The Parramatta under-14 Two Blues have won the state title.

They played their qualifying games in Orange, beating Southern Districts, Central Coast and the Hunter.

They then thrashed Warringah 50-3 in the final at T.G. Milner Field, Eastwood. It is the third-straight year the boys have won their state age group.

They started as an U10 development team in 2005 and have been coached by Neal Richardson and Craig Slattery.

Their first reward came when they beat Manly for the U12 state title, and they beat Manly again in the U13 final last year.

The Two Blues will represent Sydney against a Country NSW team in early August. Parramatta's depth was further shown when the Two Blues U12 and U13 teams lost their state finals.
