Game Face

by Lucas McAllister aged 11

No Pads,
No Pause,
Just Grit and Grace,
In Rugby’s wild relentless pace.
While football stops for every play,
We chase ahead,
No time delay.

No helmets hide the fearless face,
We stand as one,
We hold our place.
The clock rolls on,
The hits are real,
No diving here,
Just strength and steel.

So call your plays and take your fall,
We’ll ruck and maul and give our all.
For in the game,
The brave belong,
Where hearts beat loud and bodies strong.
