Young Gladiators step up at Nate Myles Cup
THE Gladiators Under 13’s went head to head with 29 clubs from across North Queensland over the weekend for the Nate Myles Cup.
The team travelled to Gordonvale to play in five games and made the club proud by playing their hardest.
The boys won their game against Souths Sharks Mackay, 4-0 and drew against JCU Saints, 16-16 and the Malanda Eels 0-0.
This was the young footy stars last competition before heading into higher level games in the Under 14’s team, with coach Danny Adams proud of the effort the boys put into the game.
He said the competition helped the boys build confidence in their sport and taught them the importance of teamwork and training.
“The boys trained up extra hard every weekend before the competition and they have worked really hard to get to this point,” he said.
“It really gets them interacting with each other and they were out there to have fun and grow as young men.”
