“This is the first time and all I can say is our hard work over the years has paid off – in the past, there was no team spirit we all wanted to do our own thing but this year is very different, we haven’t lost any games so far.”

He adds significant progress has been evident in all facets of their team.

The team acknowledges that nothing is impossible and believes this is a stepping stone to something greater in future tournaments.
