A feast for the eyes

17/05/2008

IT was a feast of futsal football at Menai last week as school teams across Sydney battled it out in the 2008 Football NSW Schools Regionals Futsal Championships.

A total of 45 teams competed in the indoor football under-14 boys and girls, under-16 boys and girls and the under-19 boys and girls divisions.

The highlight of the tournament was a sudden death penalty win to Kogarah High School over St Johns Park High School. With the scores tied at 3-all at full-time Kogarah were able to clinch the win 6-5 in a penalty shoot-out.

Sutherland Shire based schools dominated the competition winning every event. All grand final teams will play in the Football NSW State Championships being held at Penrith next month.

Under-14 boys: Endeavour Sports 5 defeated St Spyridon College 1; Under-14 girls: Woolooware High 5 defeated Sarah Redfern 2; Under-16 boys: Blakehurst 6 defeated Inaburra High 2; Under-16 girls: Jannali High 3 defeated Blakehurst High 0; Under-19 boys: St Johns Park 3 drew with Kogarah HS 3.
