Annual TICS & TIVFD Soccer Match

The annual TI Community Soccer & TIVFD Hosers soccer match took place Wednesday evening on the beautiful soccer pitch by the sea, at Capernwray.  Good times and good sportsmanship were in abundance!  Well done teams!  

Thank you to EVERYONE who came out to play and support the annual TICS (Thetis Island Community Soccer) versus TIVFD (Thetis Island Volunteer Fire Department) soccer challenge! It was a fabulous showing on both sides with players aged 5 to 60 (or maybe more but who is counting). The TICS narrowly came out on top with a 5-3 win, with the help of several Thetis Elementary soccer alumni. High scorer was Timothy Kempe with 3 goals. 

The TIVFD's Loughlin Kerr O'Connor won the Parents' Gratitude Award for his sportsmanship and care in not tripping on any of our little TICS! This was a first ever soccer game for several of our young students and they left inspired. Thanks to Referee Andy Keir as well as timekeepers, score keepers, organizers, refreshment providers, fire truck drivers and fans. See you again next year!

TICS Coaches ~ happy with the final score!
