It’s a season just about any football team in the country would envy.
Undefeated with 48 goals and just one goal scored against them.
It’s the proud record owned by senior girls team at Harbord Public School.
The team dominated the Primary Schools Sports Associations season to finish undefeated, beat Curl Curl 3-0 in the semi-final and then Beacon Hill 3-0 in the grand final.
The team were also involved in a state wide soccer knockout, again going through undefeated before beating Shell Cove 2-1 in the decider.
“We all really support each other on the field,’’ said player Lucinda Mulcahy, 12, from Freshwater, who was co-captain of the team with Cecilia Velletta.

“Our coach was very helpful with training and everyone in the team knows each other really well.
“Most of us have played together since kindy.’’
Coach Scott Addicott is justifiably proud of the side.
“With over 500 NSW public school teams participating in this knockout competition, this is a fantastic achievement,’’ said coach Addicott.
“I can honestly say that it’s been one of the most pleasurable years of coaching I’ve had and that I’m really proud of how the girls played and competed each week.
“Each player contributed to the team, they all played well together and we had a lot of fun along the way.’’
