With four rounds left in the ACT junior rugby union competition, all five Dolphins teams are looking for places in the finals.
The undefeated under 11s and under 14s are comfortably sitting in first place in their divisions, and the under 18s are close behind Marist College in second place.
The under 18s have a big weekend of rugby ahead.
On Saturday, they will play Queanbeyan, a physical team who will be full-strength at home.
On Sunday, the under 18s will travel to Milton to play Crossley Heath School, currently touring Australia from Halifax, England, as a curtain-raiser for the Broulee versus Milton senior match.
Under 18s team manager Michelle Katuke knows her team’s fitness will be tested on the weekend but is looking forward to the challenge.
“It is good we are playing our competition match fresh on Saturday,” Katuke said.
“The game against Crossley Heath is a friendly match, it is a fantastic opportunity for our boys but it won’t be easy.
“We are not sure what style of game they will play but we know their technical skills will be excellent,” Katuke said.
The under 14s and the under 13s play in Canberra this weekend, against Vikings and Uni-Norths.
The under 11s have a bye.
The only home game at Captain Oldrey Park on Saturday is the under 16s team who will play Uni-Norths at 1pm.
