Steinmühlen – Soccer Tournament on November 13 2015

This year’s Steinmühlen Soccer Tournament was held for the first time under a new format. The seven participating teams—comprising students from the day school (grades 8–12) and teachers, as well as students from the boarding school and their counselors—were grouped together by random draw before the tournament began. As a result, the field of participants was much more balanced than in previous years.

In a friendly and fair atmosphere, the games were played at the highest technical level. Many matches remained exciting right up to the end. In the first semifinal, for example, “Team Kurt” prevailed only narrowly in a penalty shootout. In the end, “FC Siewillja” emerged as the tournament champion with a well-deserved 3–1 victory over “Team Kurt.”
Given this year’s positive experience, this approach will be continued next year as well.

FC Siewillja	1st Place (Jannis Borsdorf, Hanibal, Jonathan Koreng, Marvin Peljord, Zahid, Sascha Huhn, Ella Herboth)
