They faced many tough opponents , like Saints , Anglo Chinese School Barker and Independent , Raffles and Pioneer . At the end of it they still managed to grab the Plate and came out victorious . All their hard work paid off at Republic Polytechnic where they grabbed victory from Pioneer and gained the title of ‘ Plate ’.

Teamwork and courage were exemplary qualities that shone through in both the B and C divisions this year . Spurred on by the encouragement and motivation provided by the coaches , teachers , and fellow Josephians alike , the team was able to grit their teeth and play on . The indomitable spirit and never-say-die attitude that was inculcated in us through countless technical sessions and gruelling physical training sessions were amplified during the season and molded us from boys to men .
