A huge congratulations to all our boys (20 of them) who represented GES. Split into two teams, the whole squad were fantastic, supporting each other and willing on success for all GES teams on the pitches (including the girls team).

GES 1, made up of Year 4 players, had a superb tournament, flying through the group stages with 3 wins and a draw. After qualifying for the semi-finals, they beat La Chat 1 and went on to the final. After a very close encounter in the final, ending 2-2, they just fell short in the penalty shoot-out, finishing overall SECOND place. They were understandably disappointed at first, but soon realised they should be very proud of their achievements and have learnt a lot from this experience.

GES 2, made up of a mix of Year 3 & 4 players started slowly with a few losses, but each game they played they showed big improvements. For many of the team, it was their first tournament experience so they were learning fast. The progress they made was made evident in their last group match, winning 1-0! Qualifying for the playoff to see who finished in 7th place, they played La Chat 2, wining 1-0! Ending the tournament with two big wins was a fantastic way to prove the immense improvements they made throughout the day!

Well done to all players who were a credit to GES!
