At the first water polo tournament of the season, the top Year 7 and 8 water polo teams from schools across Auckland came together over the weekend to compete for the coveted Winterfest title. The Boys’ School have won this tournament for the last two years but were beaten into silver place in this year’s final by a deserving team. 

Plenty of practice had our swimmers well prepared which resulted in a great run through the first round for the A team, eventually losing 7-3 to Mt Maunganui in the final. Jourdan Klink was noted for his skill and was awarded an Outstanding Player Award. 

Playing in B grade, the B team finished 3^rd, only losing one game in the whole tournament, and going on to beat Albany Junior High School to take bronze.

Well done to all the players.

Team players: Josh Fenton, Guy Hunt, Zach Hughes, Sam Don, Harry Dufaur, Oliver Avis, Adam Tamati, Jack George, Jourdan Klink, Matthew Shearer, Jeremy Coburn, George Smith, Will Tisdall, Ben Graham, Jack Foley, Nick Forgie, Regan Nash, Will Mcleay, Max Nelson, Luca Bottaro
