It is with great sadness that Touch Football Australia reports the passing of Mr Bob Dyke on December 24, 2010.

Queensland Secondary Schools Touch (QSST) has survived a late second half comeback from New South Wales Combined Catholic Colleges (NSWCCC) to win the 18's Boys division at the 2010 X-Blades National Youth Championships at Stockland Park.

This time last year Gavin Shuker had decided to put international touch behind him. Winning another Trans Tasman open crown was the pinnacle he thought he should bow out on.
