This team, ably captained by Henri Gaudin has not lost a game all season, and this carried through to the final game against John McGlashan College. Logan Park won 3-2 and won their Division. (See Mr Bayne's report in this Park Press also).

The team will attend the Linwood Football Tournament to be held in Dunedin during the Winter Sports Tournament week at the end of this month.
