But it is Norsewood and District's seven-a-side team's great effort in winning the Jonathon Holden Challenge Cup, which has special significance, Olsen says.
"My family has been in this district for 120 years and for our school to win this trophy is very special.
"It was an awesome team effort. When I saw the trophy, I was blown away. It's got a 94-year-old history and was first presented in 1921, with some illustrious names on it.
"The cup was won by Norsewood in 1926, 29, 30, 31 and 36 and again in 20001. When I looked at the names on the cup, it's almost a who's who of Norsewood history, with Bert Halford, a well-known identity, Tom Schofeild, Len Forbes, Percy Ridge, Alex Thompson and Eddie Mulinder. I remember these guys well and they still have family in our area."
The cup has also been won by Northern Country, representing Makotuku, Matamau and Awariki, in 1997, 1998 and 1999.
"There are plenty of guys who wore the bumble bee colours of yellow and black with pride and put in some great team efforts as well," Olsen said. "Ormondville School also won the challenge cup in 1989 and all these schools turned out a lot of great players over the years and some pretty good Ross Shield players too. They've done our district proud, as have this latest crop of young players."
Mrs Mitchell said the school's coaches, Olsen, Shayne Mullaney, Paul Coppinger, Aaron Mitchell and John Robinson, had put in a huge effort.
"We're also very appreciative of the parents who have coached the teams and the effort and attitude of our young players."
