Our badminton team dominated clinching first place in all categories and genders, securing a historic 6 out of 6 banners. Individual championships also saw Villa athletes shine. Among them, Amanda Lin and Maxim Bombardier took 1st place in Bantam Girls and Boys respectively, with teammates securing notable positions. Noteworthy performances continued across categories, with Nicole Zhang leading Cadet Girls, and Tommy Le topping Cadet Boys. The Juvie category saw Kevin Zhang emerge victorious for the boys, while doubles teams showcased impressive teamwork!

Futsal Midget Girls: Silver Medal

In March, the Cadet Girls Futsal team faced off against Lester B. Pearson High School in a thrilling semi-final match.

With seconds remaining in regular time, they netted a crucial goal, forcing overtime. Clinching victory with 18 seconds left in the first period of overtime, they showcased their defensive prowess, securing a spot in the final.

Teachers VS Students

A group of Secondary 5 students from the French and English sectors joined forces to compete against a group of teachers in three sports: volleyball, basketball and futsal.

The competition was fierce! The students came out on top in volleyball, but ultimately the teachers proved too strong by winning the basketball and futsal competitions. Congratulations to the teachers and the students who proved to be fearsome opponents!
