AICES Touch Football Championships

Last Thursday a select group of Emanuel athletes attended the AICES Touch Football Championships in Penrith. At this tournament schools from all over the State represent their associations, with some quality teams taking part.

Danielle Rutstein in Year 9 represented Emanuel in the Junior Girls CDSSA Touch team and the team benefited from the speed that she possesses. The competition was strong and the girls finished the day with several wins, placing in the middle of the group on the day.

 Representing Emanuel in the CDSSA Senior Boys Touch team were Leo Carroll and Jake Hyman. This team was incredibly strong and was placed 1^st in their pool. They went on to draw in the semi-final, but unfortunately did not progress to the final due to the opposition scoring first and earning this right.

Jared Kleviansky and Elijah Grynberg had also been selected earlier in the year to be a part of the CDSSA Junior Boys Touch team. This team is much improved and won several games on the day, scoring some exciting tries.

Overall it was a very successful day and all of our players represented Emanuel with pride. Well done!
