Saxon Bramble, Blake Richardson, Bailey Middleton, Angus Devon and Tyler Manefield will have the opportunity to compete at the National School Futsal Championships at Brisbane in October.
Teacher Jake Kinnear was also asked to coach a team at the Football Federation Australia Cup in January 2020.
Bulahdelah Central School was represented by three teams at the State Futsal Champion of Champions.
The under 16s girls team were excited to compete and performed very well. They were matched up against some very impressive teams from Northern NSW Football.
It came down to the last game where the girls needed a win to advance to nationals. They were winning 1-0 most of the match, but a last minute goal from the opposition saw the game end 1-1.
Both the under 16s and under 19s boys teams had their turn to show off their team work.
In the first few games inconsistency got the better of both teams. They held their lead for the better part of the game, but went behind one goal in the dying minutes.
They finished with a couple of strong wins of 8-0 and 9-3 which progressed both teams to Nationals to be held on the Gold Coast in November.
Congratulations to all students who participated. We are looking forward to our future Futsal endeavours in the coming events later in the year.
