Congratulations to the Senior girls’ ultimate frisbee team, which was awarded the shared EISM premiership with Aquinas College due to the shut down of interschool sports during the panedemic. Many of the girls were disappointed with this finish to the season, as they believed we were the best team in the competition.
For the Year 12 girls in the team, this was their second shared premiership after a heat-out on Grand Final day in 2017. The girls should be proud of their ability and, more so, their work ethic in achieving the premiership.
Here are some of the reflections of the competition from Health and Physical Education Prefect Bridget Deed:
Although the season was short, it was still sweet — after all, spending your Wednesday arvos with Mount Lilydale Mercy College’s finest, chucking a fris around, what more could you want? The memories that we created from 12.45-3.15pm every week will not be forgotten. No doubt every minute spent was full of laughs and made for some of the best memories of my (and hopefully some of your) school lives. I’m truly grateful for every game of fris I played for the mighty Goats and although we missed the Grand Final and another two due to heat or COVID-19, I still feel blessed I got to play as many games as I did. And, to the younger ones in the team from myself and the other Year 12s, thanks for playing with us and putting up with us. Good luck for next year (if ‘rona isn’t still here) and we’re sure you’ll make us proud.
