On Thursday the 30th of March our school hosted the annual under 14 boys and girls football tournament. Four schools took part for the boys with a total of 6 teams and three schools took part for the girls.
The boys were split into 2 groups. Group one consisted of St. Lawrence 1, St. Catherines and ACS 2nd team. And in group 2 there was St. Lawrence (after school-club), ISA and ACS 1st team. Our after-school club team faced ISA and ACS and unfortunately after losing both games they failed to qualify to the semi-finals. The St. Lawrence 1 team faced St. Catherines and lost after a close game. In the 2nd game the boys faced ACS 2nd team and won advancing to the semi-finals. In the semi-final our boys faced ISA. Despite going 2-0 up, ISA managed to turn the game around winning 3-4 after a very close game.
In the girl's tournament we faced ACS and St. Catherines. All girls on the team displayed an excellent amount of effort but unfortunately, they lost both of their games and did not qualify for the final.
For most of our young athletes this was their first ever school tournament. Despite not getting the results they hoped for, they all agreed that they loved the atmosphere of the tournament and look forward to more of these types of events.
Congratulations to the pupils that took part in the tournament. Thank you to all the parents who came and cheered for our teams. Finally, a special thank you to the coaches Mr Stefanos Strzemiecki and Mr Alex Styliatis.
