District/Division Tennis Trials
On Friday,6th March, Emmett represented the school at the district/division tennis competition held at Yarra Valley Grammar.
Emmett competed strongly throughout the day and demonstrated excellent skill and determination on the court. The top two players from each pool progressed through to the semi-finals, with Emmett narrowly missing out on qualification. In two crucial games against the players who finished above him, the matches were decided by sudden deathpoints. Had Emmett been able to secure just one of those points in each match, he would have finished second in his pool and progressed to the semi-finals. Despite the narrow margins, Emmett showed he was very competitive at the level and should be proud of his performance.
Throughout the day, he represented the school with great sportsmanship, pride and enthusiasm, and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Well done Emmett!!!
