Team North battled the crazy winds and rain on day 6 with competitions in athletics, soccer female, triathlon and beach volleyball as the Saskatchewan Summer Games wrapped up in Lloydminster.
In Girls Soccer , the team got to sleep in and play their only game at 3:00pm against RiversWest. They fought the winds all day and came away with a 0-0 draw. The girls team played their final game in the Consolation Final on Saturday against South East and lost 3 to 1. A great showing by the girls and a big thank you to the coaches Alex Etienne, Blair Etienne and Kara Kozar.
