Hitchcock Shield where it belongs
By Phill Hawke
Queanbeyan took possession of the Bob Hitchcock Territory Shield when the defeated University Owls in round 8, 58-26.
The shield is held by the home team until beaten with the end of season winner the holder after the final round of the John I. Dent Cup.
In 2018, the first shield game was between foundation clubs Easts and Uni-North. Easts became the holder after beating Uni 22-20, but they lost it to Queanbeyan when the Whites won 29-20. Queanbeyan has not won the end of season ownership.
Whites’ stalwart Bob Hitchcock is recognised by the shield competition which is based on the New Zealand Ranfurly Shield.
Hitchcock came to Queanbeyan as a schoolteacher at Queanbeyan West. He played for the Whites and then coached the club before moving into the representative field. Bob was a life member of the Queanbeyan club (2008) and the ACT Brumbies. Awarded an OAM and named ACT Coach of the Year on two occasions, Bob done it all.
His representative coaching included the ACT, Australian Under 21s, Emerging Wallabies and the Australian Women’s Wallaroos and Women’s Sevens.
Rarely does a photo capture the nature of the person. This one does, it shows his warm personality, a strength of character, his sense of humour ands honesty.
Bob died at the age of 76 leaving behind his rugby community and family.
