Catholic High’s B Boys’ floorball team were labelled “rejects” by the school’s other athletes when the team was formed in 2008. The team was even eliminated in the first round last year. But they came back and silenced their critics by upsetting favourites Victoria School 6-3 this year to become national champions.

After four years of gruelling training, the pioneer batch of the Catholic High floorball team finally tasted medal glory, putting them on par with other sports in the school.

In the B boys’ final, Catholic High surprised favourites Victoria School 6-3 to clinch their first national floorball title.

The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise.
