On Saturday, April 2nd 2022, players from the football team met up at the Racecourse ground to get ready for the annual RAISE Inter-School Futsal Tournament. We were split into u16s and u20s with each team having their separate tournament bracket. We started off the tournament with a game against Hejaaz International School. The game started off well for us, as we played a passing game and dominated possession-wise. Even better was our defence lead by Kaalep that did not give their attack any opportunities. Our persistence in attack lead to us getting some well deserved goals and we left the match with a comfortable win 3-0 win.
However, there was one big problem which was an extremely unfortunate incident that left our main and only defender Kaalep injured and out of the tournament. This was really unlucky since we had no other defenders and would be forced to play midfielders and attackers in that position. We continued hopeful nonetheless but fell short in our game against Jade International School in the quarter-finals. We were disappointed but stayed to cheer our juniors who were absolutely dominant and ended up winning their tournament. Despite the loss I am excited for the games we have to come so that we can end the year with some solid victories.
