Football news
This week the Emanuel First Football teams competed in the first round of the CIS Football Cup. The boys team, led by captain Aiden Poswell, drew a tough match against Inaburra School. After what was an intense battle, finishing at two-all after 80 minutes, Emanuel won in a thrilling penalty shoot out.
Congratulations to goal scorers, Aaron Lemberg and Toby Port, and penalty scorers, Aiden Poswell, Tomer Aron and Coby New. Well done to all the boys and best of luck for Round 2.
The girls team played Broughton Anglican College in torrential rain on the synthetic pitch at Heffron Park on Wednesday. The team is to be congratulated for the grit that they showed in what was not only a tough match against a more experienced squad but also showing great skill and resilience in the wet. Congratulations to captain, Hannah Kim, who played out of position and kept the defence tight and Eden Levit, on an outstanding performance, scoring late in the second half. This match also went to a penalty shoot out, with the result going the way of the opposition. The girls team will now refocus for the CDSSA Football Championships.
