First official Aussie Rules game yields a win

Joel Hodgkinson —

Over the last two months, a group of King's High School students have been learning the game of Aussie Rules Football.

The Otago AFL Team provided the ultimate test for their newly acquired skills, with last Sunday's game played in 30 degree heat. 

A combined team of KHS students and some more experienced players did more than just compete, they came away with a 17 point win! 

Final score 15.8 (98) to 12.9 (81).
