Super Strikers This year, as part of the G3U boys Football program, a Grade 1 team called the Super Strikers was born! These brave young players of a very tender age tried out for the G3U Dragons Team against boys from G3 and G2 and since then they have never stopped training! For months, the desire has been strong, with most training 2 times a week for 1 hour with Coach Joao, demonstrating good understanding and motivation as they continue to improve skills individually and collectively, as a team. I can see by the way they are pumped up and enthusiastic at training that these boys take Football seriously and will continue to play throughout their lives, forever remembering the values they learned as Concordian Dragons. The values of Friendship, Sportsmanship, Achievement, Courage, Fair play and Communication will stay with them for a lifetime!
They played well in a few friendly matches against a team from D. Prep, our own G3U Team B and a G1 Parents Team, where they were able to apply some of the skills and values they had been learning. I hope that all my Super Striker players stay friends, continue to develop their skills and become in two years time one of our G3U strongest teams, taking Concordian Dragons to the highest place on the podium, always with compassion for others as their biggest achievement.

Fluffy Bunnies 2019 – 2020 G3U football had one of the strangest football seasons ever. We had a great team. We had twelve solid players led by captain Term. We had some struggles with passing at the beginning of the school year which resulted in some early losses that could have been avoided. We eventually fought through unexpected obstacles to become a real team. It was a pleasure to watch these students grow from individuals into teammates. Due to our Concordian toughness we were able to turn our slow start into a G3U ASIAA silver medal. Great work boys and good luck to our departing 3rd graders next year. We will miss you! 17 CONCORDIAN IMPACT - ISSUE 28
