Went to watch my nephew play Rugby on Saturday.....and his team won the open Under 12 competition for Wellington......great achievement!!!!
Suddenly dawned on me that I had won the same tournament for the same school in the same age group years ago in my first year of Rugby.....I played on the wing.......yes I wasn't always an old pumpoi bastard.....
Anyway it was quite a coincidence and made me feel like a very proud old uncle....got me thinking whether it (my win...not my nephew's) was my favourite junior sporting moment.....probably not.....as I think the proudest mo' I ever had was just making a tournament......in the local Mattara Junior Surfing (surfboard riding) Championships....won my heat....knocked out second round......loved every minute of it!!!
What was your favourite junior sporting achievement
