The coaches and managers of the teams would like to thank the following people and groups for their support leading up to and during the National Exchange.

 

THE TEAMS - two groups of students who trained hard, played hard, and got on so well with each other and their interstate counterparts. Their commitment on the field brought them their deserved success.

 

THE PARENTS - all students were supported by their parents at training and in Adelaide. Thankyou for having the students  prepared for the games and being great supporters for us in Adelaide.

 

QUEENSLAND LIONS SOCCER CLUB - the use of their facilities for training, practise games and meal facilities created a harmonious atmosphere during training.

 

MARK ACASTER - SIMPLY SOCCER - provided our playing strip and sponsored the teams with 20 footballs and drink bottles for each team member.

 

SPORTSWEAR - having our apparel ready before time, and being prepared to make changes.

QUEENSLAND SCHOOL SPORT
