FUTSAL
Four futsal teams eagerly embarked on early morning buses for a day brimming with fun, skills, and competition.
The Under 10 girls team made their debut this year, with three schools participating in this age group. Although the girls didn't secure a win, they gave it their all and gained invaluable experience, making the most of their first-ever school competition.
The Under 10 boys faced tough competition but worked tirelessly throughout the day, finishing with 2 wins and 2 losses. The team's exemplary teamwork and dedication were commendable. Well done, boys!
The Under 12 girls displayed tremendous effort and collaboration, achieving 2 wins, a draw, and a loss, which propelled them into the semi-finals. Although they didn't advance to the final, their determination and spirit shone through.
The Under 12 boys experienced mixed results. They reached the quarter-finals but unfortunately lost to a team that had previously won the nationals. The boys concluded the day with 3 wins and 2 losses.
Great effort, everyone!
