Our Year 6 girls had the opportunity to represent Al ¾ÞÈéÊÓƵ in a Futsal tournament against other ¾ÞÈéÊÓƵ schools, organised by the ¾ÞÈéÊÓƵ Schools Association of Victoria (ISSAV).
With lots of enthusiasm, we left the ¾ÞÈéÊÓƵ with the zeal to meet our fellow students from other schools and compete in the Futsal competition.
What is futsal?
Futsal is the FIFA-recognised form of small-sided indoor football (the word is a contraction of the Spanish 'fútbol sala'). It is played between two teams who each have five players on the pitch at any one time, with rolling substitutes and a smaller ball than soccer that is harder and less bouncy. The small amount of space means players must have great technique and skill, and as well as a professional sport in its own right with national and international championships
Today’s match was very competitive but alhamdulillah, our Year 6 girls played with utmost diligence against 5 other ¾ÞÈéÊÓƵ schools, qualified for the semi-finals and came third place.
We looking forward to improving our passing skills and inShaAllah, bring a trophy home in the next competition.
