Its that time of year once more. The first of the years 9s tournaments is upon us. The International 9s. I know that many back in Australia have been “complaining” that there is no Rugby League on, that they can’t wait for the season etc… well lets see your true colours and head out to Cabramatta on Saturday the 5th of February and support the sport. I went last year and thoroughly enjoyed the day. Got to meet several NRL stars as well who came out to watch the action. Its a great opportunity to mingle with some of the future stars of the sport as well. This year there are 18 teams involved, clubs as well as National teams. The Japanese are coming out again and also Tonga have sent a team over. Niue, The Cook Islands and Fiji are fielding teams as well as an Aboriginal side.
