1st X1 Tour of Guernsey.
A massive congratulations to all the boys of the school 1st X1 football team who went to Guernsey
during the week. They played three extremely tough games in three days and won every game.
The results were as follows:
Guernsey Grammar 1 De La Salle 4
Elizabeth College 3 De La Salle 6
Guernsey College of Further Education 1 De La Salle 2.
Having to play three games in such quick succession has always been very tough, this is one of
the only occasions that a De La Salle team has managed to win every game on tour, so well done
to all the boys for their effort and commitment.
