Last Saturday for Round 1 of the Term 1 GPS/CAS Combined Competition, with the 2nds coming up against Sydney Boys High. The boys came out with aggression and drive to give it their all, showing skill and fitness, competing until the last minute. There were some excellent goals from Jonnie P and Chase H, with Captain Angus B scoring a double. The boys finished with a draw 4 – 4. Great to see the boys starting the Term off positively. Next Saturday will see the 2nds face off against Joeys.

16As
The 16As began their hunt for the Combined GPS/CAS Competition trophy on Saturday against Knox. With Shore not having played Knox for a few years, the opposition team was a complete unknown. The team came out firing with goals from Harry B, Josh I and Will B. This dominant first quarter, with a score of 3 – 0, helped set the tone for the game. The boys continued to play with strong press defence and excellent communication, which allowed them to keep Knox at bay. The final result was a 7 – 4 victory, and the next round will see the boys play Scots.

15Bs
After a long layoff over the summer break, the 15Bs took to the water against Knox with some strong messages from Coach Jake to use the width of the pool and to support each other in attack and defence. In what was a quality performance, the team did exactly that, and this was indicated from the very start with a goal inside the first minute. From that point on, it was all Shore for the first half, with an 8 – 0 scoreline at the break. The second half was a carbon copy of the first half, with Shore scoring a further 8 goals, including a maiden goal by Hudson C and a swag of goals by Oliver G. The final score of 16 – 2 demonstrated the teams’ capabilities and they can look forward to the next fixture against Riverview.
