Pacific Series 2k20 - Malie's Under 13s

Every year on November, we have Pacific Series, which is a Pacific Nation tournament, where all Pacific Nations play against each other in a game of Rugby League also, this Tournament was a 2 day tournament. All of our Pacific teams that were playing, we all had our own grades, and the grades were from grades ones to Mens grade. I was in Grade 13s and I played for the South Island Malie's team, also known as Samoa. 

As you can tell by the title of 'Pacific Series', there are only Pacific Nation teams who were allowed to play, but this year was different. Teams from different cities in New Zealand, were allowed to enter the competition, mainly teams from the South Island, but only that, but their were also Rugby clubs who entered the competition aswell. 

The usual teams were Tonga, Samoa, Fiji, Cook Island and The Kiwi's, and the new teams that joined were Timaru, West Coast, Linwood Bulls, also a team from Auckland well known as the Auckland Warriors. 

The tournament was held at Hoon Hay Park Christchurch, in New Zealand. 

This year, our Malie's 13s team, had trained really hard, and were committed into this interesting tournament. In our 13s grade, we faced 3 challenging teams, which were Timaru, West Coast Legends, and The Auckland Warriors. We played the 3 teams on Friday, and played all three of them again on Saturday, so in total, there were basically 6 games, and out of those 6 games, we managed to win 4 games, and lose 2 against the West Coast team. 

Our Siva Tau was lead by a young leader Gafatasi, a good mate of mine.
