Playing against three separate opponents in two different locations, the Hawks community rallied around all their arsenal and cheered them on to victory in what was a terrific day for the club
Celebrating a return to competition, Harden’s Youth League team gave a good account of themselves in defeating the Gungahlin Bulls 18-12 at Gungahlin Enclosed Oval in the ACT on Saturday morning.
In the afternoon’s League Tag contest at the Boorowa Showgrounds, Harden’s Hawkettes registered their first win of the season, running out big 44-0 winners against Gunning Roos.
Harden had control from early on in the match and enjoyed taking a 24-0 buffer into the break, showing no real signs of letting up on their opponents.
Playing pretty much at near full strength, the Hawkettes gelled quite nicely well as a team and the girls struck a particularly good balance between attack and defence.
Competing in the main game on Saturday afternoon, Harden’s First Grade unit were merciless against Boorowa Rovers, winning the match comfortably 40-4.
Leading 16-4 at half time, the Hawks continued on their merry-way in the second half, eventually posting their more-than-handy percentage boosting win.
The Hawks are on their home deck at McLean Oval in all three grades for round 4.
