PNG U19 league side to tour NQ

THE PNG U19 rugby league team would make a 10-day tour of North Queensland early next year.
Chairman of PNG Rugby Football League, Sir Bob Sinclair, said the tour will take the team to Townsville where they would play the Combined Cairns/Townsville side as curtain raiser to North Queensland Cowboys and NZ Warriors.
Sir Bob said five days later, PNG boys play a Mackay side as curtain raiser to NQ Cowboys and South Sydney in Mackay before returning.
Meanwhile, the Central Queensland Rugby Football League (CQRFL) has offered two scholarships to PNGRFL for their schoolboys programme.
Sir Bob last week confirmed that Central Queensland had agreed to offer scholarship to two PNG schoolboys.
?I am waiting for the representative of Central Queensland to sort out the scholarship arrangements before selecting which two players to attend,? he said.
Central Queensland RFLC are looking towards PNG after PNG schoolboys courageously finished third in the World Schoolboys rugby league tournament in Russia last month.
Australia won the championships after beating France in the final.
