Annual Soccer Game for Charity

It was an intense game of great caliber and skills that played up the frosty afternoon amidst enthusiastic cheers. The Hamilton Police team also showed off their skills and it was a match of wills, wit and endurance.

A narrow win for the Columbia Cougars

“Over all, I think it was a good quality game and both teams showed good sportsmanship and character on the field.” Mr. Erind Hamtaj of the Student Development Office said.“As for our students, I believe that they dominated the game by having more possession and control on the field.”

The match result shows yet again, the excellence and dedication that Columbia strives for, in every student and in every arena of their personal development.
