2018-10-07 Cadets Cup Champions! Hitting the beach!


 

Aiysha: What a weekend! I was unsure how we were going to go in the Cadets Cup, as I felt this team was not as good as last year - but how wrong I was!

For some reason, I was positioned at WD, even though I was vice captain. For the whole of the first day, and for the first 2 games on Sunday, I was placed there, and I struggled. I did get to play Centre and WA a couple of times, but not much. Fortunately, we managed to gel so well together as a team, and we convincingly beat every team on the first day - all 5 games! The last game was against Demons who were going to be the toughest side, and they were very dirty. We managed to hold out by one point, which was really cool, as we didn't like them at all. The best thing was how well the team were playing, and there were no weaknesses at all!

We qualified for the final by winning our last two games on Sunday, and we were playing Demon's again! I didn't think I was actually going to get a game, as I was WD the whole time, but when it came to announcing the team, my coach selected my to go WA! I was so happy! Rhythm was C, Zoe was WD, and it was the perfect combination! We absolutely loved it, and tore the other team apart - it was so exciting. A lot of their players were also state players, which was even funnier! I was happy with my half, and thought I'd be coming off, but the coach then put me on as C! It was so much fun, and I loved every minute even though I was soooo tired. We won the final by 15 in the end!

Dad and I have been hitting the beach a lot over the past couple of weeks - so much fun! I'm trying to surf again - FAIL!

Clara: Aiysha, you played amazing! It was so much fun to watch. So proud of you! I can't wait to play this next year!

C: What a tournament, what a team! The coach was very clever, and made Paish very happy. You played amazing Paish!


S: What a weekend! So much fun, and we're going to miss you not playing next year Paish! Well done, very impressive!
