The Cobar Roosters junior rugby league teams joined with the senior sides and Mini players on Saturday to present a feast of football at Tom Knight Memorial Oval.
St John’s Blue opened the day with a win in the Under 10s game up against an ever

“St John’s have always been an extremely strong club,” Mrs Knight said.
The Cobar Under 10s coach’s awards for the game went to Reece Josephson, Jaxon Burke and Jack Rogers.
