Assalam alaikum,
It has been a slower term in the high school sports department at The Australian Islamic College Adelaide. While we have been fortunate enough to successfully acquire another grant to buy new equipment, some of our sports excursions have been postponed due to COVID. The senior 3v3 basketball tournament will take place in week 10 with a massive 5-a-side soccer carnival in week 1, next term.
Despite interschool sports being slow, after-school sports has continued with no sign of slowing down. The students’ commitment and dedication to sport is always fantastic to see. Many students have been making dramatic improvements in their coordination and technique in a variety of sports.
Finally, we are incredibly proud of our Power Intercultural Program AFL boys and girls teams. Both made it to the final at Adelaide Oval and fiercely competed for the 2021 trophy. Our girls fell short but gave an incredible effort. Our boys dominated their game and became champions! Massive congratulations to all students and families involved. It was an incredible day for our school and our students.
Wassalam alaikum
