C Grade Hockey Match Report IS v KGV

On Thursday 9th we had our first hockey game of the season, against KGV. We worked together as a team, had some great play and never gave up. Our goalie Tasha was under a huge amount of pressure, but she was the glue that held our team together, and she was player of the match. Alana, Milan and the rest of our defenders were also under huge pressure but they worked hard to get the ball out of the D, and were always there to block the opposition. Our forwards, Ada, Scarlett, Emily and the rest, ran like crazy for the ball, and didn't let the other team win without a fight. And our midfield's, especially Susan and Heena, were always there to pressure the defence. Our defenders, forwards and midfield's all did so well and I can't wait for our next game! Although we lost 2-0, I was really proud of the C grade Team:Tasha, Nikita, Hana, Milan, Lauren, Miranda, Megan, Jemma, Heena, Alana, Ada, Scarlett, Emily, Noa

B grade Soccer

The HKSSF competition has proved strong this season, so it was some trepidation that we faced Ying Wa, the current Div1 overall champions. Illness had taken its toll with Rohit, the goalkeeper, ruled out of the game it fell to Luke to take the gloves. The team have been unlucky this season but they played very well once again. They had more of the action against a side that has 7 current HK players in their line-up. We had some good chances, including a penalty but the game ended goalless.

A very similar line up played a friendly against SJC before CNY, coming out 1-0 winners. Thanks to Mrs Kwok for the pictures.

FLEMING NEWS

Friday 20^th January saw our annual Inter House Athletics finals at Wanchai. Fleming students had performed extremely well in the heats as the House was in 3^rd place at the start of the day, a fantastic achievement. This, unfortunately wasn’t going to last, mainly due to a large number of Fleming finalists being absent on the day. As each event drew to a close we saw ourselves gradually slip from 3^rd to 6^th place. This did not dampen our spirits and we cheered on with some great performances, especially in the relays.  Well done to those who gave their all. Perhaps this is a good time to remind ourselves of one of our mottos for this year: ‘We don’t have to win it but, we have to be in it!’
