SCSS Basketball Finals
Well done to our Semi Finalist basketball teams for their strong performances on Friday night. Our Junior C Girls worked hard but couldn’t quite keep up with their opposition on Friday night. It is a great achievement to get to the Semi Finals stage so well done to the girls and Coach Jess. Congratulations to our Intermediate B Boys and Junior B Girls who took out upset wins in their semi final matches. All the best to these teams and coaches Mr Burdon (Intermediate Boys) and Mr Hauser (Junior Girls) as they play in their Grand Final matches on Friday night at Caloundra Indoor Centre.
Sunshine Coast Secondary School’s Water Polo
Well done to our Water Polo teams who played with great spirit in the penultimate matches of their season. The Intermediate Girls were highly competitive in their match and pushed their opposition all the way to the final quarter. While they didn’t pick up the win, they have shown great development over the season and will look to take their strong performance into their Bronze medal match on Monday. The Junior Boys were dominant in their win at St Andrew’s and have qualified for the B division Grand Final on Monday. Both teams will be playing in their final matches at Sunshine Coast Grammar on Monday the 13th and we wish them, Coach Sam and Mr Crompton, all the best.
SCISSA RUGBY 7s
Congratulations to all our teams last night for what was another end to an incredible season for a number of our teams. We had 3 teams compete in the division 1 semi-finals and a team in the division 2 semi-finals. Although none of our teams were successful in the semi-finals, coming up against some tough competition and narrow score lines, they can be proud of the spirit and effort they have put in all season. Our U13 girls bounced back to defeat Glasshouse in the 3rd place play-off, with a very convincing win. Our 14 Boys went on to defeat Sunshine Coast Grammar in a very physical and dominant contest and our U14 girls went on to defeat St Andrews in overtime, in what was a very tight contest. A special mention to the boys in the U14 B Team who showed up last night and played with spirit, even with the difficulty of low numbers. I would like to thank the support of all our coaches and parents for their continued support of Rugby and look forward to working with this excellent group of young people in continuing to hone and develop their skills over the coming years.
