Collegians vs Year 12 Soccer Match

By Mrs Monique Glavonjic, Community Engagement Manager

On Wednesday, 28 May, a crowd made up of students, collegians, staff and parents came together to witness a spirited game of soccer between our talented Year 12 footballers and a passionate team of Radford College Collegians.

Spearheaded by our College Football Captains, Thea Reinhardt and Henry MacCallum, this friendly match was more than just a game - it was a powerful celebration of connection across generations. The Collegians team featured a dynamic mix of former students, with collegians ranging from the Class of 1992 through to 2023.

We were especially honoured to welcome Tom Rogic, former Australian Socceroo and proud Radford collegian from the Class of 2010. Tom attended as our Radford College Football Ambassador, offering encouragement from the sidelines and inspiring our young athletes with his presence.

The match itself was a thrilling contest, with the Year 12 team securing a hard-fought, 2–1 victory, much to the delight of their supporters. The game was expertly officiated by Radford's Head of Football, Mr Mitch Stevens, and showcased the exceptional sportsmanship and skill of both teams.

This exciting match marks just the beginning of a series of games planned throughout the year, all building towards a grand final showdown at our Twilight Fete on Saturday, 1 November.
