IPSHA AFL and Touch Football<\/strong><\/h4>\n

IPSHA Touch Football Round 5 continued last weekend with all teams in actions. The 6A team played against a highly spirited St Andrew\u2019s side who started off strong by scoring the first try. The SCEGGS girls worked as a team and defended as a cohesive unit to minimise scoring chances for St Andrew\u2019s for the remainder of the game. The score ended 6-2 to SCEGGS. It is great to see this team incorporating new tactics each week. The 6B team had a close game against Ascham and despite some good athleticism from Giselle Yamani (Year 6) just couldn\u2019t overcome their opposition, going down 4-3. The 4A team lost against St Catherine\u2019s, although a big shout out to Alyssa Kisirwani (Year 4) and Georgina Sharp (Year 4) who backed up their performance by supporting the 5A team who were short on numbers. Well done, girls!<\/p>\n

In IPSHA AFL, the Year 5 team deserve a shout out. The Abbotsleigh team were short on players, so showing the graciousness of our SCEGGS Sports Values, we offered them three players on a rotational basis to ensure a full 9-a-side game could be played. It was wonderful to see the girls play with another school and support their players, while also giving their own teammates a great challenge too!<\/p>\n
