Hornsby PCYC Football Update

February 17, 2010 by deb · Leave a Comment 

Everyone is really excited to be back and playing football and are training hard for the competition in Sydney South early next month.

We’ve welcomed a few new faces to football - welcome Jack and welcome back Joshua.  Bruce is doing a terrific job of blowing the whistle from the sidelines as he is still recovering from surgery.  James spectacularly missed a shot into an open goal during the game this week - to the anguish of fans watching.    The twins (Jack’s brothers) are whizzing around the court like maniacs but are still to get the better of Alex.

Training is on at Hornsby PCYC, 6pm-7pm on Wednesdays during school terms.  If you would like to join you are most welcome!  For more information contact Sabine Schreuder on 9456 6887.

SOSUNS athletes, Luke and Tom recently competed in the Central Coast Regional Golf competition.  They bravely played through extremely hot conditions to beat all before them. 

Playing in Division 1, Luke came first in the 9 hole competition while Tom won the Division 2 open competition playing 18 holes with a great score of 105.

Both athletes are off to Adelaide for the National Games in April and it looks like their training is right on course!!
