AFL 9’s Classic Gala day – Friday 25th November
On Friday, the 25th of November, myself and 9 other students from years 8 and 9, attended the AFL 9s Gala day. We left school at quarter past seven in the morning and travelled (in the mini bus) to moore park, Sydney. We played a total of four (24 minute) games and we were very happy to come home with three out of four wins. This was a great achievement considering none of our team had any experience with AFL. During the day, we improved on many skills as well as used great teamwork. We were also extremely privileged to enter the SCG (Sydney Cricket Ground) and play our final game in the ground. Unfortunately we lost this final game but as a team we had a great experience and are extremely grateful for the opportunity.
