MacGregor siblings, Maely and Sonny have had an outstanding season on the footy field and they continue to impress.

Maely recently competed in the Australian Rugby Shield with NSW Country Corellas where they secured bronze in Caloundra Queensland.

"It was really exciting and a really great opportunity up there," Maely said.

"It developed my rugby heaps, the coaches were brilliant, and the team was brilliant as we ended up winning three out of our four games to come third overall."

The teams first game was against Australian Defence Force where the Corellas won 31-7.

On the second day the Corellas were up against the South Australia Black Falcons where they again won convincingly with a score of 36-5.

Maely added to this score line with an impressive try on the 50th minute of the second half breaking through numerous Black Falcons players.

The Corellas toughest game was on day three against the ACT where they unfortunately went down 24-3 losing their chance to advance to the grand final.

"We just lost the game to get into the final, which was a bummer, we lost to the ACT but they ended up taking it out overall so I wasn't as sad about it when they ended up winning the whole thing," Maely said.

The NSW Corellas advanced to the bronze medal match against Australian Defense Force where they again won 31-5 to claim the bronze medal.

"Dad and I were also the first father daughter duo to represent NSW Country which is a pretty proud moment for me."

Maely was also a part of the women's minor premiers Boars team which ended up coming runners up in the championship.

"Minor premiers with Parkes Boars was really good.

"We couldn't quite get the choccys in the grand final but we're really looking forward to next year."

The talented rugby union player was also a part of the Central West Rugby Union team who won the 2024 Thomas Tom Cup.

Sonny has recently been selected as part of the Illawarra Steelers 2025 U17s rep train-on squad for the Harold Mathews Cup.

"I'm in the 40 man squad for Harold Mathews and we will go up to Illawarra and train for the competition at the start of November," Sonny said.

"The program goes through summer and it's just a good comp of footy, it's pretty high level and good competition."

The final team out of the 40 man squad will be picked in February, where Sonny hopes to be selected.

Earlier this year Sonny was a part of the winning U16 Spacemens team and the U18 Spacemens team.

"16s league we won the grand final for our third year in a row, it was a good season.

"18's league was a good experience this year. We made to the semi finals and most of our team were 16 year olds playing up."

Maely is now going into the league season with the Lachlan team in the Western Women's Rugby League competition.

"I had my first game on the weekend and we went down to Bathurst by a fair chuck. Other than that I'll be playing a fair bit of union in the next little while which will be good, Maely said.

Next year Maely hopes to playing in Newcastle with the Wildfires in the Sydney competition but says Parkes is home and always will be.

Sonny's goal for next year is to play in SG Ball.

"Next year I hope to play SG Ball, it's one above Harold Matthew with players up to U19s," Sonny said.

"It will be a lot harder but I hope to play that level of footy, a bit higher rep a bit more competition."

"This year we have had great opportunities for both of us, especially to further our footy and next year with more opportunities, it will be good," Maely added.
