In the U15 girls' hockey match against Peponi, both teams fought hard, and the game ended in a 1-1 draw, with Lara Bailey scoring a fantastic goal in the last 10 minutes of the game, earning us our first 2 points for the league. The players on both sides showed great determination and skill, especially defensively, resulting in stopping many goal attempts. The midfield battles were intense, with players working hard to control and pass the ball effectively.

Team voted: Valentina(C) and Aminata as our MVPs of the day!

An impressive performance by Braeburn U19 boys’ basketball team, especially considering we had a 6-man makeshift team comprising of 2 U15's and 2 players who have never played before! Real team spirit and determination - well done!

The U15’s Hockey team lost their game 2-0 against BGE.We had a slow first quarter but got into the game creating so many chances and putting BGE on the back foot. It’s a shame we just couldn’t convert but lots to look forward to in training.

U19 girls Football v Swedish school

Although we lost 5:1, the score does not give justice to the fight the girls put up against the best Football school in the circuit.

Right from the start, it was a defensive game, and defend they did with all their hearts. They worked so hard that our keeper (Nana Mulla sustain a fractured wrist)

We still have a lot of work to do to develop team cohesion and refine our movements but all in all it was a a game well played.

Accolades to Megumi for scoring a fantastic goal from a free kick

The team is played extremely well today. The girls were had more cohesion and the ball was moving better.

Our defense was super good especially against ISK and RVA both and we manage to keep the goals con-sided low.

Although we were eliminated in the group stages, there is definitely an huge improvement in their play.

Kudus to Aphelele for stepping up to play As Keeper.
