The Gold Coast deservedly claimed the Hill-Stumer Championship trophy last weekend, with a commanding performance which saw the junior Vikings teams win all six matches played over the weekend at Carina’s Les Williams Fields.
The carnival is the South East Queensland selection trials in the Under 13 and the Under 14 age groups. You can see the selected squads below.
In the Under 13 games, Gold Coast launched their campaign with an exciting 32-22 win over the Stingers White outfit.
In the other morning game, it was Ipswich that upset Stingers Red winning by 24 points to 14. The Vikings then defeated Stingers Red by 40-6 in their Saturday afternoon clash, White beat the Ipswich Diggers 20-10 to stay in the hunt.
The Stingers White outfit put some pressure on Gold Coast winning the Sunday first up match 38-0 over their Red Brisbane counterparts, but the Vikings overpowered Ipswich to win comfortably 58-6.
This saw the Gold Coast finish with a total of 13 points for the Carnival, from a possible 15-point tally.
White were next with 10 points, then Ipswich (5) and the disappointing Stingers Red still managing to win two halves for 2 points.
The Under 14 Gold Coast v Stingers White match was also a tussle, the Vikings winning 16-12 with both teams crossing for three tries each.
Brisbane Stingers Red were too good for Ipswich running out convincing 40-0 winners. In the afternoon games, the Gold Coast capped a good day defeating Red by 30-14, and Stingers White overcame a much improved Ipswich Diggers performance eventually winning by 22-4.
Both Under 14 matches on Sunday proved to be very entertaining with Gold Coast having to hold off a barnstorming finish to win 16-12 and claim the Under 14s trophy.
The Stingers Red v Stingers White game was also a thriller, Red claiming a see-sawing 26-24 victory. The final Under 14 points tally was Gold Coast on 12½ points (again from 15 points), Red with 10½, followed by White (6) and then Ipswich (1).
The formidable total of 25½ from a maximum of 30, saw the jubilant Gold Coast Vikings receive the Hill-Stumer trophy.
In a real highlight for the players and crowd in attendance, Ipswich stalwart Merv Stumer was on hand to present the trophies and awards to the winning teams, as well as the individual players.
The Division has now selected its 46 member squad in each age group to participate in a weekend training camp at the Runaway Bay Sports Centre from Saturday, May 28 to Sunday, May 29.
Following this weekend, the Division will name two representative teams in the Under 13s and the Under 14s to attend this year’s QRL State Junior Carnival program.
This year’s carnival will be hosted at Toowoomba from Wednesday 29th June to Sunday 3rd July.
