Kangaroos Junior Rugby League Club - Cairns

To our U17 Boys…

The club is truly proud of the young men you have become, both on and off the field. 💙💛

This season started with a lot of uncertainty. With the restructure of game days, we started slowly and at one point we weren’t even sure if we would have enough boys to field a full team.

But you boys turned up, stuck together and worked hard all season — and what a season it became!

A very special shout-out to Brandon, Tyler, Javahn & Julian, who have worn the Kangaroos colours for their entire junior journey, from U6 through to U17. You boys have achieved so much throughout the years, and we thank you for proudly representing our club every single season. What an incredible way to finish your junior football journey.

Then we have the boys who have ventured away at different times but have always known where home is — somehow finding their way back to Roos. 💙💛

Grand Final day summed up everything about this team.

We faced a full-strength Brothers side while missing three boys from our starting line-up, with another two boys taking the field while unwell. We also had four boys who only joined us this season — three of whom had never played club land before.

But watching that Grand Final, you never would have known.

You trusted your coaches. You trusted each other. You played your game. You backed one another and proved what can happen when a team plays with heart.

That game was the perfect reflection of who you boys became this season — a team that refused to make excuses and refused to give up.

I cannot wait to see what the future holds for each and every one of you.

Congratulations to our 2026 U17 Boys Champions! 🏆

What a way to finish your junior years.
💙💛

To our U16 Blue boys — what can I say?! 💙💛

You boys have worked so incredibly hard, not only this season, but for some of you, over the past four years. Each year you pushed a little harder, grew a little stronger and got that little bit closer.

But this season… you made it. 🏆

There was something different about this year. When the moment came, you rose to the occasion, trusted each other, played your game and came away with the amazing win you all worked so hard for and truly deserved!

As a club, we are immensely proud of the leadership, determination and resilience you boys have shown. You represented the Kangaroos jersey with pride and showed exactly what can happen when a team sticks together and keeps believing.

A massive congratulations and thank you to your coaching staff for the time, commitment and belief you have poured into these boys, and to the parents, families and sponsor Kerri Vico who have supported them every step of the way.

Four years of building. Four years of believing. And now, you’re Grand Final Champions! 🏆💙💛

Congratulations U16 Blue — you earned this one! 🦘

💙💛 SILVER MEDAL NIGHT! 💙💛

Because I was too busy living in the moment last night, I completely failed at taking photos! 😂 But what a fantastic night it was!

On behalf of Kangaroos Juniors, I would like to congratulate all nominees and winners of the Silver Medal Awards. It was great to see everyone come together, celebrate the season and enjoy themselves.

A very special mention to our own Kangaroos nominees — you are all winners in our eyes, and we are incredibly proud of you! 💙💛

⭐ Micah – U13 Girls Nominee & Team of the Year

🏆 Lola-Rose – U15 Girls Nominee & Silver Medal Winner!

And if that wasn’t enough to celebrate…

🏆💙💛 KANGAROOS JUNIORS ARE BACK-TO-BACK CLUB CHAMPIONS! 💛💙🏆

What a well-deserved accomplishment after a hard-fought season.

This achievement belongs to our entire Kangaroos family — our coaches, managers, coaching staff, volunteers and, most importantly, our players who continued to turn up for each other every single weekend.

To our sponsors who backed our teams and followed their journeys throughout the season, thank you. Your support means more than you know.

What a season. What a club. What a family.
