SUMMER SOCCER - YEARS 1&2, 3&4, 5&6 - 26 NOVEMBER 2018

Wentworth Storm - Year 1
In the first game against Stella Maris, our little team lost 7-0 against an older, bigger and experienced team (mostly Year 2's and even a Year 3 player).  We played a really exciting game against Red Beach, and although we lost again, 5-0, there were 3 really good attempts at goals by our team and some good defending with excellent saves by Cyrus Luo.  Player of the Day went to Maddie Vaudrey,who played such a high energy game, was always on top of the ball, called out for the ball to be passed to her, and would go in for a tackle without hesitation.
Trainings are run at lunchtimes on Mondays for Years 1 & 2.
 
Wentworth Warriors - Years 1 & 2
The Warriors excelled in effort and team spirit on the pitches at the start of Week 6. They started the match against Dairy Flat Dragons with just four players. When faced with strong opponents who benefitted from six subs, the Warriors were not put off and played strongly, actively bringing the ball back up field to attack after a solid defence. With five weeks of practise under their belts, the Warriors are playing together effectively as a team and they are enjoying using the skills they learn during a Monday practice. (0-1 to Dairy Flat.)
Although the score was 0-3 to Silverdale Galaxy it must be noted that with only one sub at our disposal, the team had to play a lot harder than their opponents. Their consistent effort and concentration is to be commended. The Warriors refuelled with a second match tea of oranges, thanks to Elsa's father, during half-time against Silverdale Galaxy. This spurred on Jacob and Theo who, for the entire two matches, did not have a single minute off! The last two goals were quite lucky ones and the Warriors demonstrated great stamina and determination to try and score right up until the very last minute. Terrific effort and play by all. Ezrah took home the Player of the Day award for his consistent effort and good sportsmanship.
Trainings are run at lunchtimes on Mondays for Years 1 & 2.


Wentworth Dragons - Years 3 & 4
The Dragon's soared, roared and pulled the teeth of Stanmore Bay Tigers with a 7-2 victory. An impressive, disciplined team win saw them fall into a rhythm that became their undoing in their second game against a faster-paced Orewa Daredevils- succumbing 4-0 but winning some important experience that saw them regaining composure and zero goals conceded in the second half. Great teamwork! Player of the Day was Olliver Lee for his relentless attempts at scoring.

Trainings are run at lunchtimes on Friday's for Years 3 & 4.

Wentworth Magpies - Years 3 & 4
Another awesome week of soccer. The team are finding their positions and are doing really well.  Lots of laughter and fun. Goals were scored by Oscar, Harper and Bella. Player of the Day was Oscar for covering the field, awesome tackling and sticking to the ball. We lost 1 - 4 to Silverdale and 2 - 3 to Gulf Harbour.
Trainings are run at lunchtimes on Friday's for Years 3 & 4.

Wentworth Strikers - Years 5 & 6
Team!!  what can we say…… you all played so well.  The whole team played with drive, attacking the ball on defence and conceding no goals in either games. We started to pass to our team mates which we hope continues. Player of the Day went to Ben Oliver.
We took two wins this week which  was well deserved.
