Secondary Schools Futsal

On Tuesday and Wednesday this week, the 16 years boys and 19 years boys and girls Pacific futsal teams competed in the Regional Schools Futsal titles at Caloundra Stadium. It was a great day of competition and all three teams played exceptionally well.

The 19 years boys made it in to the tournament semi-finals, but unfortunately came up against the eventual championship winners, Chancellor State High School, losing in a tough match. The boys played well but were outclassed in the end. The 19 years girls team also made it through to the semi-finals in their competition, after a few tough matches in the pool rounds. They came up against Chancellor State High School in a very physical match. The Pacific girls put up a good fight and played in the right spirit of the game, but came up short, to be knocked out of the grand finals.

The 16 years boys team started off the competition by losing their first two games. But they rallied together and improved as a team in each subsequent game, managing to make it through to the semi finals against Kawana State High School. The boys played a magnificent team game and won their semi 4-1 to progress through to the grand final against Southern Cross Christian College. After taking the lead with an early goal, Pacific looked like they were set to win. However, Southern Cross snuck in a few quick goals to win the match. Congratulations to the boys for a fantastic effort.

A huge thank you to Mrs Leah Croke for looking after the teams on both days. Mrs Croke kindly gave up her time during a very busy period of the school year and did an outstanding job with all teams. Well done.
