Girls DIO Touch Football
Magdalene’s touch football teams put on a stellar performance at the Diocesan Touch Football competition, displaying skill, resilience, and teamwork across all age groups. Despite the challenging heat, our Under 13, Under 15, and Opens girls' teams gave it their all, proudly representing the school.
The Under 15s team, coached by Mrs Cordina, had an outstanding day, going undefeated throughout the competition. Their ability to adapt to the speed and skill required in touch football was exceptional, making them highly competitive against teams that play the sport more frequently. Their teamwork, determination, and strategic play were key to their success.
Our Under 13s team, led by Mrs Lapa, put in a fantastic effort, showing great spirit and improvement to finish in 5th place. They displayed impressive teamwork and resilience, proving their potential for future competitions.
Meanwhile, the Opens team, coached by Mr Manns, battled hard against tough competition to secure an impressive 3rd place finish. Their ability to work together, push through the conditions, and never give up was a testament to their dedication and sportsmanship.
This competition was a fantastic display of talent and commitment from all our Magdalene athletes. Congratulations to all players and coaches on an incredible tournament!
