Football 1st XI Boys
The Ōtūmoetai College 1st XI Football team is in fine form this season, remaining unbeaten after eight games in the Baywide Youth Premier League. With seven wins and a single draw to their name, the squad is looking to go one better than last season’s 2nd place and currently sits proudly at the top of the table.
The side has consistently outperformed strong opposition week after week. Their results so far are a testament to the hard work, dedication, and unity within the squad — both on and off the field.
With Winter Tournament Week fast approaching, they are hoping to maintain this strong form for when they head to Auckland to compete for the Malcolm Cowie cup on August 24th.
Very exciting times ahead for this squad!

Ōtūmoetai College Athletes: Unleash Your Potential with Strength & Conditioning (S&C)!
Here at Ōtūmoetai College, we’re dedicated to helping you become the best athlete you can be. While honing skills and training hard are essential, a strong foundation is crucial for success. That’s where S&C comes in!
S&C isn’t just about lifting weights. It’s a tailored program designed to build your strength, power, endurance, and agility – all the physical tools you need to dominate your sport. It can help you:
* Reduce injury risk: By strengthening your muscles and improving your movement mechanics, S&C helps you avoid setbacks.
* Boost performance: Increased strength and power translates to an increase in performance regardless of the sports or position; Stronger, Faster, more Powerful.
* Enhance recovery: S&C improves your body’s ability to bounce back from intense training sessions, keeping you at peak performance.
Ready to take your game to the next level? Make sure you attend our S&C program here at Ōtūmoetai College!
