Glencoe Primary boasted another successfully hosted soccer tournament thanks to the teachers and learners of the school.
Schools from Glencoe, Dundee, Hlobane, Bergville, Richardsbay, Vryheid and Paulpietersburg came to participate. With 183 players it was quite a challenge but everything was well managed and all the teams walked away with prizes.
Points were allocated for wins on the first day and then it was strength vs strength on the second day. There was one penalty shoot-out at the end of day one to determine the lacing of two teams for day two.
It proved to be quite exciting as all the other players were spectators and cheered for every goal scored.
Glencoe Primary sincerely thanked all the educators and other officials who contributed towards the success of the tournament. Also a special thank you to NASHUA who sponsored 45 soccer balls towards the tournament.
