Boys Football (photo above)

I'm Sam, the vice captain of the Winter Tournament Football Team.

We had a really strong team this year and smashed the competition, winning every game by at least 4 goals (including the final!) We were over the moon after winning the tournament, it was a shame the first day was rained off, but we managed to play 4 games in on Friday. I’d like to thank Ms. Bibby for coaching us and helping us be able to work together as a team. Also I’d like to thank Mr. White and the girls football team for letting us train against you. It was the first time in 10 years Waimea had won the tournament and it won’t be our last.

Girls Basketball

The Waimea Intermediate girl’s winter tournament basketball team participated in the top of the south Intermediate Winter Tournament alongside Nelson Prep, Nelson Intermediate, Baholly, Brodgreen and Renwick. Day one, our basketball team had four games winning them all by over 20 points, the whole team was overwhelmed with excitement after that day and we couldn’t wait for day 2. Day 2 was also a long day with another 4 games but we won our games by more than 20 points again and entering the final with another strong lead and winning the trophy for 2017.
