PROFILED Celtic welcome Glasgow City to K-Park looking It does feel like a new season. We have been doing to right their opening day defeat to the champions a pre-season so the only difference really is that we with a victory to set the second round of fixtures are starting two points behind, but our goal is to try off to an ideal start. and win every single game.

Of course I want to be with the girls, but being injured and watching them play is definitely harder, so having been away doing my own rehab and knowing everyone is doing their own work at home made it a little easier because we were all on our own paths before we came back together.” QUIZ 1 WHO MADE THEIR CELTIC DEBUT AGAINST TUOHY CREDITS ADAPTABILITY GLASGOW CITY IN THE SEASON OPENER?

  • Hettie De Villiers, Principal, Does Not Hesitate to Use These Words When
    PRESS RELEASE: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE SUBJECT: TUKSPORT HIGH SCHOOL SOD TURNING DATE: 06 October 2014 “It’s a dream come true.” Hettie de Villiers, principal, does not hesitate to use these words when she describes her feelings about the fact that, for the first time since its inception 13 years ago, the TuksSport High School will become a proper school next year with its own buildings and own ethos. “I know it is a cliché to say that ‘it’s a dream come true’, but for all of us who are involved with the school, these words say it all. For the past ten years we have been scheming, trying to find out how to go about building a proper school, but it was to no avail because we were unable to get the necessary funding to go ahead. Now, at long last, we have a donor who shares our vision and passion about making a difference in the lives of talented children, not only in sports but on an academic level as well,” De Villiers said. If everything goes according to plan, TuksSport High School will move from the Groenkloof Campus to the LC de Villiers sports grounds in August next year. “One of the plus points of this move will be that the school will be able to develop its own character for the first time. In other words, it will become a school with which both the pupils and teachers can associate themselves. This is very important, because we want the children to feel proud of their school and its achievements.” The TuksSport High School started off in the rugby clubhouse, after which it was moved to an office in the hpc headquarters.

    Scotland Women’s National Team: A Team on theRise by Ciara McCormack For anyone that has been following European women’s soccer in the last decade, Scotland is a team that has been knocking on the door, inching painfully closer to inclusion in its first major international tournament. On Oct. 24, 2012, Scotland played Spain for the final spot in the UEFA EURO 2013, which will be held in Sweden next year. photo courtesy of Glasgow City FC For Scottish players, it would have been a way to eliminate memories of losing on away goals in a playoff to Russia for a EURO 2009 spot. Yet with Scotland moments away from going through on away goals, and the score tied 2-2 in Spain, after a 1-1 draw in Scotland, Spain scored a goal with seconds left in extra time. They left the Scots shattered on the field, so close to such a major accomplishment after overcoming so many challenges. But Scotland’s players had little time to dwell. “We played Spain on Wednesday night in Madrid and suffered the most heartbreaking loss of not only my career but all of ours,” said Scotland Captain and starting goalkeeper Gemma Rachel Corsie and Fay. “Thirty-six hours later, we were back at work and school. Leanne Ross lift the Cup “In that last game we played against Spain in the EURO 2013 playoff, nine of the starting 11 were either full-time students or in full-time employment. At least two of the players were taking unpaid leave to be there as they had used up all their annual leave for the year, and the rest were using their last few days of their annual leave,” Fay said.
