It was a packed house at Pizzey Park that saw the contest that was the Arrive Alive South East Queensland final between rival local High Schools Keebra Park and Palm Beach Currumbin. It was always going to be a close affair with both sides boasting International schoolboys in Matt Parata and Ben Te'o (Keebra) and Darius Boyd (PBC) and the half time score was a very tight 4-0 lead to Keebra through a Damon Harth try.

The second half saw PBC equalise and then Keebra once again take an 8-4 lead through a well worked try to big Ben Teo. This made for a very tense last ten minutes that saw PBC pressing the Keebra line until a mistake handed flying Keebra winger Tim Matenga an intercept that he took full advantage of to score and give his teamates an unasailable 14-4 lead.

Well done boys on a terrific win and good luck as you head to Suncorp Stadium for the Queensland final against either Ignatius Park or Kirwan State High from North Queensland.

This game will be a curtain raiser to the Broncos Vs Roosters NRL game and is sure to be a big day for the team.
