Connaught School claims 2019 elementary soccer championship
Connaught School defeated McKitrick Elementary in a clash of the heavyweights on the soccer pitch this week, to claim the 2019 Living Sky School Division Elementary Soccer Championship.
A game featuring some of the top Grade five and six soccer players from the Battlefords, the match proved to be a close contest throughout.
Connaught led the championship game 1-0 for most of the afternoon, until McKitrick battled back to tie the game late, with just about a minute left on the clock.
The turn of events led to a shootout with the city championship on the line.
