Bill Turner Soccer
by Eliza Harris
Last week Assumption had two soccer teams compete in the first round of the Bill Turner Cup in Stanthorpe. Both teams performed admirably and were the epitome of sportsmanship and teamwork, coming away with very pleasing results! The Boys’ team, coached by Mr O’Brien finished the day with a win, a draw and a loss and are to be congratulated on many fine individual performances. The Girls’ team, coached by Miss Harris was thrilled to come away with two wins and a draw – even defeating long-time rivals Stanthorpe SHS.
The girls then progressed to the next round of the Cup, competing against Highfields Secondary College in Toowoomba on Wednesday this week. Highfields had a strong side going in with 4 subs to our team of 11. We played hard and scored early in the first half. By half time the score was evened, and it was a hard fought second half with lots of attempts but no goals. The game ended 1 all and from there progressed to a penalty shootout which our girls came away from victorious! Well done on a fantastic effort and good luck for the next round!
Confraternity Day at Dalby
by Jack Duggan
Game 1:
The Confro boys took the field against St Johns Roma to kick off the day. As a result of injury and sickness, six of our players had to sit on the sidelines. The team saw the day out with 15 players however that did not worry us. Strong performances around the park saw Assumption come away with the win against a never give up attitude Roma side. A positive mention to Sam Ogden who played his first game back after 12 months on the sidelines with a shoulder injury.
Game 2:
The last game of the day, Assumption took the field against St Joseph’s Toowoomba in a Darling Downs game. Assumption started the game slower than they wanted, leaking early tries to the St Joey’s team. The boys went into half time behind on the score board. Assumption knew what they needed to do in the second half however, did not come away with the win. Great effort to all the boys showing promise for the upcoming carnival at Bundaberg. The Assumption boys aim to take on St Joey’s in the second round of Darling Downs games with a full-strength team and bring home the win.
