On Wednesday 27 March, eight students from Team 7/8 competed in an American flag football tournament....
This team was only introduced to the sport three weeks before hand. They competed against Casebrook, Breens and Cotswold Intermediates. Despite the inexperience of the team, they were able to win three games and draw two on the way to qualifying for the final. Unfortunately they lost the final two touchdowns to one against Casebrook Intermediate. The attitude, effort and commitment of the team was outstanding. So was the wonderful support they received from parents who attended. A special mention must go to Azhley Bernardino who was an inspiring captain, scoring seven touchdowns, including four in one game.
