The advent of a South Island U19 Tournament, necessitated a name change from our previous U19, to U20 Development. This change allowed us to cater for a slightly wider age group of players who didn’t quite make the other Canterbury Rep. teams. As our programme includes games against neighbouring Unions Development sides, which include older and more mature players, the change made sense.
A tough six match programme resulted in a four/two - win/loss ratio. A penalty goal well into injury time saw the Tiny Hill Trophy go south with the Sassenachs, while a very good Mid Canterbury Development XV was just too good for our lads.
