Congratulations - junior boys and girls soccer teams!
Congratulations to the junior boys and girls soccer team for an outstanding season!
The grade 6 junior boys soccer team faced some tough opponents and were also missing a few key players due to injuries. They did not manage to qualify for the playoffs; however our Fern Falcons played with a lot of heart and never gave up regardless of the result. Also, our grade 4 boys displayed a lot of talent during practices. Although they did not go to the grade 6 tournament we are certain that they will make their mark in the years to come.
The grade 6 junior girls placed second in all of TDSB. Our road to the TDSB City Finals was bumpy, but after winning a tough game against Humber Valley Village powerhouse (2:1) the girls became West Conference Champions. At the city finals we won our semi-final game (4:1) against Cedarbrook. The girls lost in the finals against Blythewood (5:2). We had some amazing passing and scoring opportunities and the score does not indicate how close the teams were throughout the game.
At the beginning of our soccer season, we told our players that real winners know how to win graciously but also know how to lose graciously. We knew the girls had accomplished something special when, after the final game at the medal ceremony, the soccer convenor mentioned that we were the happiest second placed team he has seen in a long time.
Your coaches are proud of you,
Mr. Cline and Mr. Nikolajevic
