Two prizegiving ceremonies had to be arranged for the Masterton Red Star Rams JAB rugby teams this year to cate for all players, officials and supporters.
The ceremony featuring the under-10, under-11, under-12 and under-13 teams was highlighted with an address by former All Black and now NZRU employee Brent "Buck' Anderson, a stalwart of Wairarapa-Bush and Waikato in his playing days. About 120 youngsters were at that function and then another 70 from the under-6, under-8 and under-9 teams the next day.
