Luckily, the weather turned around after a soggy start this morning an we were able to play our long awaited football tournament. With some new players starting today, it was a great showcase of enjoyment and pride. The girls really loved the games that they played, all smiled (even after late tackles) and encouraged each other to be their best. It was a joy to watch.
Our Year 3/4 team played their first game together and managed to finish third, which we are so proud of. This was the first time for a number of them playing a football game today. There were so many great performances, but Daisy was like a hoover in defence, vacuuming up any dangerous passes. She takes the player of the tournament for Year 3/4.
For our Year 5/6 team, some of the girls had played previously, but there were some new starters. As the tournament champions, they have also made us feel really proud. With lots of great displays all over the pitch, the girls managed to win all of their games, against some tough opposition. Madi takes the player of the tournament, with some great tackles in midfield.
We can’t wait for more tournaments in the future!
