Mountainview High School Football & Futsal

Day 2 Tournament 2026: today saw us playing two games against high quality opposition and Dunedin even showed some glimmers of blue sky! . We discussed as a team what an exciting aspect it is to come and challenge ourselves at tournaments like this, against teams we don’t usually get to play. I our first game we played Dilworth School. This was a quality team but MVHS made it hard for them. Formed on the qualities of effort and encouragement the team played really well. Although going down 3-0 they were competitive through out. James Duncan was our player of the game for his effort in the central midfield. Game 2 was against Burnside who were a quality team. The MVHS team were organised and the press from our central midfield group of Yoshi, James and Joel were dynamic and made our team very hard to break down. Although going down in this game, 3-0, the team are understanding their roles within our pattern and growing as a team. The player of the game was Joel Creba who ran tirelessly creating a great defensive screen.

Day 1 Tournament 2026: our first game at tournament was a hard fought game with only 1 goal separating the teams. Although going down the MVHS team worked hard and put together some good football moments. It was a tough outing as snow showers and icy winds were the playing conditions. Our player of the day for this game was Tyler Gosling who was dynamic at the back.

Safely in Dunedin. The MVHS boys 1st XI are looking forward to their first game. Although thermals may be required!

Special congratulations to Tyler Gosling and James Duncan who were part of the Timaru United team who won the South Canterbury Senior Mens league on Saturday. And a shout out to a host of ex Mounties who are also part of this team! Well done.

The coaches and supporters are very proud of the MVHS girls team in 2026. It has been fantastic to see the growth into footballers that our girls have made. Looking forward to the 2027 season!

Football fever has hit MVHS! Thanks to the team who organised our mini World Cup celebration tournament, that marks the start of the World Cup. And great to see New Zealand won the final! Happy World Cup Day everyone!
