The Fair Play Trophy was awarded to the SWS football team who placed 2nd in the Bico Primary School Football Competition.
This was another excellent season for our Football team of 17 boys and 3 girls, most of which came from the Junior 4 year.
In the Zone playoffs our team was unbeaten, winning 8 matches of the nine matches and drawing one. We ended up as winners of our zone, thus qualifying for the last 16. This in itself, was a great achievement as there were approximately 70 teams entered. We then won our next 3 matches, bringing us into the fnals against St. Gabriels. Unfortunaely, this did not go our way as they were the better team on the day winning 4 goals to 1. Nevertheless, we were extremely proud of our team who were awarded the “Fair Play” Trophy for the season. Gavin Hutchinson and Gylla McKenzie were awarded special trophies for best mid-field and best girl respectively. We were again sponsored by Ovaltine. Our Captain this year again was Dane Amstrong.

We are starting a football programme for the Beginners' students. This will be offered during the same time as ballet (Thursday mornings) and there will be a $70.00 fee per term. This will commence from Week 3 – Thursday, 18th September.
Mr. Mark Byfield will be the coach. He is a qualified coach with a great deal of coaching experience. The main aims of the programme are to guide participants in the basic skills, assist in balance and coordination, decision making and foster an overall element of fun.
