Tea Gardens Hawks and Lady Hawks take beating Sport by News Of The Area - Modern Media - July 15, 2016July 20, 2016 Tea Gardens Hawks WHAT a difference a week makes. Riding high on two strong outings, the Tea Gardens Hawks came back to earth with a 50 point drubbing from last placed Paterson River side on Saturday. Starting the game with a single player on the bench, and several playing out of regular positions, the Hawks were still confident. The first 15 minutes, where sides were on an equal footing, saw the game trend formed. A number of lost chances that would have got the Hawks in front went astray. Paterson River replied with three tries to open an 18 point lead. Want your business advertised online with the News Of The Area?
