Fantastic results

Last Wednesday Emanuel School entered a Junior boys and girls team into the now annual Jewish Day Schools Futsal Gala Day which was held at Curl Curl.

Competing schools included Masada College, Kesser Torah and Moriah College. This small but tight tournament breeds fierce competition.

Congratulations to our victorious boys team who blitzed their way to the final usurping the Moriah team in an exciting final that finished with a penalty shoot out to win 3-2. The entire team played extremely well with an absolutely outstanding performance from Ethan De Melo aptly supported by the courageous goalkeeper Mathew Bozic. It is with great pride to note this team last year did not win a single game and to show such enormous improvement is a credit to the boys and Kristy Reed’s futsal program.

The girls also thrilled on the day winning their way to the final to also meet Moriah College going down gallantly 2-0. They all showed great team work with Kaia Ziman and Jamie Orleow leading the way.

Mazal tov to all!
