Bethlehem

This week we have many teams away at tournaments, including the hockey girls who had a good warm up win last week against the Otumoetai women 1-0. A narrow loss to Waikato Dio has been followed with convincing wins against Hastings Girls and Hillcrest High schools. In the quarter-finals, they will be meeting local rivals Otumoetai for a place in the semifinals.

The boys hockey team found their pool tough and had narrow losses to St Paul's and Mount Albert Grammar followed by a 2-2 draw against Rosmini College.

Last week, the girls' football team had a convincing win against the Mount seconds with a score of 7-0 and the player of the day was Rebecca Chester.

Next week, we look forward to the AIMS tournament with approximately 120 students taking part in 12 sports.

Otumoetai

There are enough challenges just getting teams away for Winter Tournament week without having the terrible weather everyone got on Monday throughout the country, but sports people bounce back and everyone is in great spirits thriving on the competitions.

Our junior boys' basketball team were up against the powerhouses of basketball. The boys have done really well and learned heaps. They lost to Hillcrest 62-73, lost to Rangitoto 59-102, lost to TBC 49-83, lost to Westlake (a school of 2500 boys with 36 basketball teams) but beat Fraser High School 97-85 and have headed home very satisfied with their team's efforts.

The football girls had a positive start to their tourney with three convincing wins, beating Taita 10-0, Golden Bay 2-0 and Hastings Girls 3-0. Brooke Matheson playing well, scoring often.

The football boys got washed out for the morning game and lost against Mt Albert Dev 1-3 in the afternoon.

The boys beat Glenfield 2-1.

The hockey girls 1st XI first game was washed out before they drew 1-1 with Wanganui and also drew against Kamo 1-1 with the girls scoring in the absolute last second of the game.

A good team effort with Sophie Tingey scoring the goal that counted and another win in the afternoon with Katie Horan scoring. Megan Gosbee played well in the goalie circle.

The hockey girls 2nd XI faced Aquinas 1st XI, which was always going to be a tough challenge but the Otumoetai 2nd XI stepped up with a new level of determination to the first game of the Mary Clinton Cup tournament.

The final score of nil all was a credit to gutsy defence work. Kate Livingstone cemented her reputation as a quality goalkeeper with three great saves that kept the score line clean.

The second game against Edgecumbe was a solid 3-0 win.

The hockey boys 1st XI lost their first game against Pukekohe 7-1 but had a good 1-1 draw against Gisborne.

The netball premier one team had three late changes to their roster in the last 10 days so was challenged before they left.

They lost to Rosehill by 7 and then Tamauranui which means they now contest the 2nd 16 of the B Grade.

Winter tournament week is underway all over the country with the weather playing a part in the first couple of days. Tauranga Girls' College 1st XI Football is playing in the premier tournament in Taupo and after two days are through to the top eight after winning four games. The 2nd XI football team are at a satellite tournament at Papamoa and are playing off for a top eight position on day 3 of the tournament after three wins and one loses.

Te Puke High

Good luck to all our teams who are currently away competing in winter tournament week. Football, Boys: Papakura, Auckland - Bad weather led to game delays at the very start of the tournament, fingers crossed the weather improves for the rest of the week.

Hockey, Girls: North Harbour, Auckland - our girls won their first game against Papatoetoe 3-0. The team were very structured and looked in control the whole game. They then came up against Kerikeri, and our girls were still recovering from the first game but played with control and determination. Sadly they couldn't quite beat Kerikeri. There is still hope that they may have made it into the top eight. Great work girls!

Hockey: Te Puke High School Boys played Tauranga Colt's men's team in a friendly match. Despite goals being scored by Gupreet Singh, Ben Williams and Corban Hodder, Te Puke still lost 3-4. It was tough playing a men's team but our boys did really well. Keep up the good work boys.
