Beach Touch Football Tournament

Sharon Fairfax – PDHPE Teacher Aide 

Emanuel School entered nine teams in this annual event held at Maroubra Beach on Friday.

This was our largest group ever.

Junior and Senior Girls and Boys teams thrived in the ideal conditions at an amazing iconic Australian beach on a spectacular day.

The four in attack and three in defence format makes this game incredibly fast with many quick turn arounds. Running in the sand really tests the students’ athleticism and agility.

The day is always a highlight in the sporting calendar. This year we competed against a broad array of schools including Kambala School, Marsden High, Maitland High, Randwick High, Hurlstone Agricultural High, Sylvania High, Moriah College, International Grammar School, Newtown High, and Plumpton High.

All matches were played at an extremely fast pace with a high skill level.

Well done to all students who represented Emanuel School on the day.
