The Year 8/9 team who consisted mostly of Year 8s, and have never played Futsal before, played brilliantly however lost two games and drew one.
Year 10/11
The Year 10/11 team reached the semi finals and beat Larne High School 1-0 to reach the final with a great goal by Leah Wilgaus. The nail biting final was played against Abbey Community College with Darcey Boyle scoring a well worked goal to secure a 1-0 finish.
The goalscorers for the Year 10/11 team included Darcey Boyle, Cody Mullin and Leah Wilgaus.
Year 12+
The Year 12+ were also very successful, beating Parkhall 5-1 and 7-1. Faith Johnston scoring four goals, Codie Baird scoring six and Abbie Robinson scoring two.
