Netball news

The Sydney Schools Cup inter-school Netball competition came to a conclusion this week. The Emanuel Year 7/8 team played in the grand final against Moriah College on Tuesday afternoon at Emanuel. After being undefeated all term, the Emanuel team went in as strong favourites and won the game convincingly 26 – 9. Gabriella Freed’s consistent shooting was outstanding, leading the team to take control of the match early on.

Well done to Ruth Durbach, Gabriella Freed, Ashleigh Gold, Leah Grunseit, Franki Kulansky, Mia Levin, Alice Milner, Abby Sarraf, Alyssa Simmons and Ashley Urbach on a great season. 

Last Friday, three Emanuel Netball teams competed at the Jewish Day Schools inter-school competition. It was pleasing to see the high level of interest in Netball from the Year 7/8 students and all teams competed with great skill and enthusiasm on the day, despite the gloomy weather conditions. The Year 8 Emanuel Maroon team was undefeated on the day, but unfortunately the event was washed out with two rounds to play. Well done to all those involved.

AFL news

The Emanuel Year 7/8 AFL team competed at the Jewish Day Schools inter-school competition last week. This team had made great improvements in recent weeks under the guidance of Stuart Taylor and played very well on the day. Ethan Hirst was a stand out, leading the team to qualify for the grand final against Moriah. Unfortunately the boys lost the final despite amazing efforts by all.

Well done to Jack Goldberg, Joshua Gordan, David Hakim, Ethan Hirst, Aiden Kanevsky, Alexander Kirievsky, Jonah Lemberg, Ben Maserow, Zak Michalson, Koby Michel, Samuel Owen, Levi Pager, Gideon Pozniak, Jasper Selinger and Marcus Tsimbler.
