NSW Schools Regional Futsal Championships
Last Thursday saw the commencement of the NSW Schools Regional Futsal Championships. The Emanuel Open Girls team competed in the Liverpool region with great success. Their training and preparation proved to be beneficial. The girls finished the day undefeated, winning all three pool stage matches, the semi-final and the grand-final. Congratulations to Nina Brown, Megan Finn, Hannah Kim, Sienna Meyer, Victoria Miller, Lara Rutstein, Sarah Sharwood, Jordan Weizman and Kaia Ziman. This team will now progress to the NSW Schools State Championships next term.
AICES Football Championships
Eden Levit, Hannah Kim and Sienna Poswell recently competed at the AICES Football Championships at Valentine Park. These students had previously been selected for the CDSSA Football team following their outstanding performances at the gala day at the beginning of term. They continued this great performance whilst playing with other representative players in the association. The CDSSA team proved to be very strong, winning the grand final of the AICES Championships. Congratulations Eden, Hannah and Sienna.
AICES Rugby Championships
Earlier in the term, eight Emanuel students attended the CDSSA Rugby trials. This is the first time that a trial has been held, which is a reflection of the growing rugby program at Emanuel and the CDSSA.
All Emanuel students who attended were selected for the CDSSA Rugby teams. These teams went on to compete at the AICES Rugby Championships last Thursday. Congratulations to Ariel Berger, Matthew Bozic, Alan Drannikov, Jonathan Eremeev, Elijah Grynberg and Ari Karjalainen. A special mention to Alan Drannikov who was selected in the AICES 16 years team and will now compete at the NSW Championships.
