IPSHA AFL and Touch

IPSHA AFL had a very strong season for all teams under the guidance of our passionate AFL coaches. The girls demonstrated amazing growth in their skills and game strategies and tactics. The energy, enthusiasm and passion for AFL from all students has been palpable throughout the season.

IPSHA Touch managed one win across the divisions, however there were many smiles across all grades. The 6A team staged a late fightback although fell one try short, going down 4-5 to St Catherine’s and the 6B team defeated MLC 3-1. The Year 5 team had one of their best performances of the season. They drew 3-3 to Loretto, although Eliana Raissis (Year 5) almost clinched a late winner, running the length of the field but was touched just before the try line. The 4A team were outclassed against a strong Kambala side and the 4B team had a close loss against Ravenswood, although Ms Thompson has been very happy with the progress made by the girls.

Well done to all players, coaches and staff for an excellent season of AFL, Touch, and Year 3 Minkey.
