Well done to our Year 5-6 water polo team who won the B Division grand final on Monday evening in the Sunshine Coast Primary Schools Water Polo Competition.

After finishing top of the table in the preliminary rounds, Pacific played the Siena Dolphins in the semi-finals. In a very close game, Pacific were able to move through to the grand final with a 3-1 win over their opponents.

In the grand final, Pacific played the Siena Sharks. In a very exciting game, our team was able to score some great goals and take out the game 6-1. Our players were then presented with their medallions and premiership shield by Australian women’s water polo players, Zoe Arancini and Lea Yanitsas, who are currently training on the Sunshine for the Tokyo Olympics.

Congratulations to all team members: Fletcher Friend, Arjuna Suseno, William Fowler, Charlie Dee, Henry Greene, Euan Lengenberg, Eleanor O’Connor, Sam Schefe and Lottie Winter.

Thank you to Mr Brett Jones who coached the team and thank you to all parents who transported and supported the team throughout the season.
