Bill Turner Trophy
Our under 15's girls soccer team headed to Inverell Thursday 21st March for the Bill Turner Trophy. The girls didn't win against Holy Trinity unfortunately but are commended on their efforts and sportsmanship. They played great as a team and had a fantastic game for their first time playing a full game together. Well done girls!
