OUR last Wednesday of Junior Touch Football before the school holiday break was action packed. The under-10 division got the afternoon underway with the Screaming Iguanas who played a solid defensive game to take the win over Pink Storm with Ethan, Louis and Zoe having great games. Mexican Amigos took out the game against GSLC (girls) despite the GSLC team scoring a couple of second half touchdowns. Lexie, Grace and Marcellus all played well for their teams. GSLC (boys) and the Purple Panthers showed great attacking skill, GSLC taking the points this week with Lilliana, Alla, Maddie and Ashton playing well.
The under-14/16s STCC (girls) were match up against GSLC (girls) with STCC finishing on top. Ella, Tia and Rosie produced first rate games.
GSLC (boys) were too strong for the NDSHS 8s (girls) with Charlie, Scott, James and Chelsea F. putting in mighty efforts.
Sunshine Rebels and Inferno played out a tight match will the Rebels in front at full time by just a couple of touchdowns. Great skill was on show by Harry, Taj, Tyla and Giverny.
NDSHS 8s (mixed) made Average Joes work hard for their win until the final whistle with Clay, Joe-Max, Kalen and Kirra all having outstanding games.
STCC Pansies, clearly the team to beat at this stage of the season, accounted for SBSHS (girls). Cooper, John, Sharlene and Esta all played well.
A close match between GSLC and Banana Split saw the under-12s get off to a great start with GSLC taking the game. Lily, Jamaica, Bella and Chloe gave tenacious performances.
Purple Storm had no answers against the Vipers who were on fire this week but full credit to the girls who showed their ‘never give up’ attitude for the entire match. Gus, Georgia, and Jack were rock solid for their respective teams.
Saints had the edge over Devils this time around with Bronson, Lachlan and William having outstanding games.
Hope everyone enjoys the school holidays and look forward to the junior competition recommencing the first Wednesday of the final school term.
Until the next touchdown…
