DIVISION SOCCER

Last Friday the Year 6 boys soccer team travelled to Pakenham for the School Sport Victoria Division Championships. The team had qualified for this event by winning the District Championship against seven other schools in Term 2. Our first game was up against Lang Lang and after a tight first half, our boys pulled away in the second half to win 5-0. Pakenham Lakeside then played Lang Lang and also won 5-0 so it came down to a winner takes all match-up in the final game between St.Clare’s and Pakenham Lakeside. It was an extremely tight match up and despite our boys creating some good chances, the game was still locked at 0-0 at the final whistle. This meant that it would take a penalty shootout to decide who progressed to the Regional Championships in August.

After falling behind early in the shootout, the boys recovered and showed true grit to win the shootout and progress to the next round in dramatic fashion. They are now into the final 64 teams in all of Victoria. We will play in an eight team tournament at Casey Fields on August 21st with the winner progressing to the final 8 and the State Championships.

Good luck to Kai, Jax, Rylie, Ricky, Stefaan, Tiago, Brodie, Nixon, Dennis, Tyson, Ethan and Flynn for the next round.

CATHOLIC INTER-SCHOOL SPORT COMPETITION

 

FOOTBALL

Last Friday our St.Clare’s Grey football team opened their season at home against St.Patrick’s in very blustery conditions. The team performed incredibly well and played the game in the right spirit showing great determination and displaying fair play. The final score was St.Patrick’s 3.5.23 to St.Clare’s 2.1.13. We are already looking forward to our game against St.James this Friday while St.Clare’s Maroon will travel to St.Catherine’s Grey.

NETBALL

For a first game netball grey played a great game. There was improvement every quarter and a great team spirit. The result of 8 goals to St. Patrick's and 4 goals to us, at the end of the game, didn't reflect the hard work and determination shown by all players.

NEWCOMB

Newcomb Grey played 2 games. Unfortunately, they lost both games.  The team tried hard and never lost their team spirit.  The students were very supportive of each other and took their defeat well.  

Game 1:  25-5

Game 2:  25-13
