The MAGS Senior Girls Water Polo team claimed Bronze at the NZ Secondary Schools Tournament held in Rotorua.
The team only just missed out on playing off for a Gold or Silver after losing to EGGS in a penalty shoot-out in the semi-finals.
They had some great wins, 7-4 v John Paul, 5-0 v Takapuna, 5-0 v Cambridge High, and 7-3 v Waikato Dio, along with a 2-2 draw with EGGS and a 6-11 loss to St Margaret’s, who were the overall winners of the tournament.
It was a very successful tournament, placing 3rd out of 17 teams in the competition and Caitlin Mossman being named in the Tournament Team.
Special thanks go to coach Isabella Ieremia, who is an Albertian and played Premier water polo for the school, for all her hard work and commitment. Isabella has been instrumental in developing each of the players throughout the season to enable the team to achieve such a great result.
Behind the scenes, Pam Oram and Michele Colligan have done exceptional work organising and managing the team not only during the tournament but also throughout the season.
