Year 6 students competed at the NASSA Touch Football Gala Day on the 22nd May. Both the boys team and the girls team recorded mixes results throughout the day with some impressive wins over some schools and some narrow defeats against others.
The girls team had many girls who had never played before. They finished the day in third place on the back of miserly defence and some excellent long-range scoring from Estella and Jessica.
The boys finished the day in 7th place; a position not indicative of their skill and dedication. Fast dummy half play and the ability to move the ball from one side of the field to the other was on show when they had the ball.
Ashton Nou deservedly received an invitation to trial for the CIS team. Ashton has outstanding acceleration and elusiveness. He is a tireless defender and uncatchable once he makes a line break. He was one of our most valuable contributors on the day. Several other boys and girls also narrowly missed out on selection.
Boys team: Jai Nakhl, Ashton Nou, Luke Moran, Francesco Violi, Callum Agar, Domenic Trovato, Joshua Cachia, Bailee Van, Anthony Grech
Girls team: Alana Moore, Dahlia Logozzo, Kayla Ta, Mia Tran, Marley Rhodes, Angelina Hagipantelis, Jessica Michalak, Isabella Hozeph, Estella Beltran
