This past weekend the Glenwood Water Polo teams played their finals fixtures for the year against Northwood on Friday 3/11/17 and DHS on Saturday 4/11/17.
At Northwood the younger teams had some tough games with U14A loss of 6-4, U14B loss of 7-0, U15A loss of 3-2, and U15B loss of 6-3. The second team won their game convincingly with a 5-1 score. Well done to the younger teams who are gaining some much needed experience for the New Year. The first team played a great game against a young Northwood side with goals scored by Slade Du Randt, Declan Kirkbride, Bulelani Mzimela and Gabriel Stopford, they ended with a score of 7-0 to Glenwood.
On Saturday 4/11/17, the last fixture of the season was played against DHS at home. The atmosphere was a good one and the boys were in high spirits. The younger teams all had good games with wins for the U14A of 8-2, the U15A of 4-0 and the 2nd team had a lovely game with a 12-0 win.
The 1st Team were looking forward to ending their winning season on a high and as it was the last fixture for the three Matric boys Gabriel Stopford, Slade Du Randt and James Livingstone, the spirit was infectious. The game was a relaxed one with some great goals scored across the board from both the younger players and the more experienced players. The keeper Alex Van Rooyen yet again made some incredible saves and only conceded 4 goals. The final score was 23-4, a great end to a fantastic season for these boys. They are undefeated in their school fixtures and we are very proud of them.
