In the Open Boys' Knockout Football game against Unley High School, our boys were a bit slow out of the gates, giving Unley a three-goal lead at quarter time. With a stronger focus on applying pressure around the ground and also staying on our players, we were able to take control of the game a little more. We had the ball in our forward half for most of the game after quarter time; however, our inaccurate kicking meant that the scoreboard was still very close. Going into the final minute of the game, we were three points down, with Paddy 12SBAC kicking the match-winner with 30 seconds left. 

It came down to the wire, but we were able to keep our cool and hold on to a narrow, three-point win. The boys should be very proud of how they played and they deserve the win.
