The tourament itself, is the largest of it's kind in all of the Nation. Over 2,000 spectators were at the tournnament through out the day. Motherlode showed great improvement from last season but were no match for the Amazons in losing their league opener 46-0. Angela Ve'evalu, Loa Fauolo and Neni Green each scored a couple tries each.
