In between visits to the ER, while playing incredibly strong teams, our very young and inexperienced ๐/๐ญ๐ฒ๐ ๐๐ข๐๐๐๐ฌ ๐ง๐๐๐ represented the school very well during this past weekendโs u/16 ๐๐ค๐๐ ๐๐ฎ ๐๐๐จ๐ฉ๐๐ซ๐๐ก ๐๐ฉ ๐๐๐๐ง๐จ๐ค๐ฃ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ค๐ค๐ก in Gqeberha.
The school is exceptionally proud of this group of girls, who, while facing teams such as DSG, Kingswood, Queenstown Girlsโ High School and Pearson, left it all on the field, exhausting all possible efforts during every single match they played.
While they didnโt manage to record a win, the girls racked up valuable match experience and walked away winners in knowing that this is the start of something great, that together they are stronger and that courage can be found deep within when every muscle is screaming and spirits are low.
