Intermediate Boys Black Range Football

On Friday 24th May two Horsham College teams travelled to North Park Stawell to compete in the 2024 Black Range Football competition against Stawell SC, Marion C and Ararat.

Horsham College 1 were successful in winning all their games and will now progress to Ballarat on Tuesday 11th June to compete in the Greater Western Competition.

Well done to the much younger Horsham College 2 on your day only dropping 1 game which was against HC 1.

Results:

HC1 - 57 def HC 2 - 6

HC1 – 58 def Ararat College - 1

HC 2 – 15 def Marions College - 12

HC 2 – 28 def Stawell – 7

HC 1 – 27 def Marian College – 0

Due to an injury the final couple of games were not played as they had no bearing on the result.

A big thank you to those boys who happily played for other schools to help them out, this is a great display of our school values and thanks to Mr Hose and Mr Petering for coaching both teams.
