The day started out quite chaotically for the THAC team with terrible traffic playing havoc with our arrival and preparation. This had an impact on the team, who subsequently dropped their first and earliest game against Cecil Hills High School 2-1.
However, the loss stunned the THAC boys into action, with the team notching up 3 wins in the rest of the group matches. Special mention must go to our strikers: Denim N and Justin V (who bagged a classy brace in our last pool match against William Clarke College).
Nevertheless, the early loss saw us go through as second in our group, which drew us against the highly-fancied Bossley Park High School in the quarter finals. Despite some early sniffs at goal and the heroic goal-keeping of Dusan S, the THAC team went down 3-0 to the eventual champions of the Tournament. Inspirational Coach Sonny Makko, always quick to spot the silver lining, keenly drew the boys’ attention to what they had achieved on the day and learnt as a result.
A special thanks to Sonny Makko and John Williams who coached these students throughout the year. Well done to all of them!
