A superb first quarter with our first five dominant in all areas saw Rossall with Edward So controlling the early skirmishes. Rossall with Ryan Ko scored at will with Arnold being cut apart. The first quarter ended with Rossall storming ahead 26-6.
.
The second quarter continued with Andrew Suen and Victor Lu adding another 19 points with only six in reply. The half ended with Rossall 45-12 ahead and dominant.
.
A few changes at the beginning of the third quarter saw Sam Ho replace Edward So but the momentum was still there and with Callum Brady and Julian Ng resolute in defence we extended our lead to 57-16 by the end of the third quarter.
.
In the last quarter we replaced Ryan Ko with Matthew Au Yeung and the pace slowed but not before we scored another 10 points with only 4 pts in reply. Arnold were a well beaten team by the end but were magnanimous in defeat.
.
The final score was 67-20. This result places Rossall in the final to be played in the New Year. Also Rossall U16’s are undefeated in ten matches and for two years in this competition.
