Football news

In 2018 Emanuel School will be entering the Combined Independent Schools (CIS) Football Championships in both the girls and boys divisions. This is a knockout tournament involving independent schools from across the state. The tournament always proves to be very competitive and is a highlight of the sporting year.

I will be running trials for both the boys’ and girls’ teams in the first few weeks of next year. These trials will be open to Years 8-12 and students will be selected on the basis of their performance at these trials. If your child is interested in attending please ensure that they register their interest with me prior to the end of the year.

On Sunday, former Socceroo, Aytek Genc, ran the Football Federation Australia (FFA) accredited, ALDi Miniroos Coaching Certificate for the Emanuel community. I would like to congratulate Amy Altman, Jared Kleviansky, Ruby Klisser, Benjamin Marx, Lara Rutstein, Justin Sarif and Kaia Ziman for completing the course. Many of our School coaching staff also completed the course on the day. This certificate is the first level football coaching qualification, which provides excellent preparation for working in the football industry and coaching young teams.
