The 4th class girls and boys both played in the annual AIJS hockey tournament that took place in St. Andrew College on the 24th of February, 2025. There was a great sense of excitement leading up to the tournament as the pupils would be playing their first competitive matches. The girls had a slow start in their section, and they got better as the tournament went, ending of the tournament on a high by getting a last-minute equaliser against the host St. Andrews, who are a very strong team. The boys made it all the way to the final. During the final, the rain started pouring, but this didn’t stop the boys from giving their best. The match ended in a draw, and then there was five minutes added time to try to get a winner, but both teams were well matched, ending up with both teams sharing the gold medals. All boys and girls that played should be very proud of themselves for playing such amazing hockey during the tournament.
