Rugby

The 1st XV took on St Peter’s College who are the 3rd on the table.  In an evenly contested first half,  a couple of defensive lapses saw St Peter’s score twice just before half-time to take a 15 nil lead.  Liston hit back with a try to Will Couper and were unfortunate not to be awarded 2 tries.  A game of missed opportunities meant St Peter’s won were deserved winners.  Next Up Sacred Heart College

The 2nd XV had their first loss of the season going down 19-21 to Auckland Grammar.  Liston put themselves under pressure through conceding too many penalties.  The Under 15 team bounced back to a good 43-5 win over Massey High School, the Under 14s lost to a very good Auckland Grammar side and the Under 13s played a competitive game against Ponsonby.

This Saturday only the Under 13 and 1st XV teams have games.

Over the next few weeks, team managers will be following up with those who still owe fees.

Liston College charges significantly less than other schools for their extracurricular sports and these fees need to be paid so we can continue to offer sport to our students in the future.
