Teamwork. Hardwork. Cougar Spirit!

Jeanette Zamora
Clairbourn football and volleyball teams competed this season against various private schools in the area including Chandler, High Point, and Poly. Our teams were excited to put all of their hard work into action!
 

Our flag football players made many great throws at the quarterback position helping move the ball down field, hiked the ball, blocked, and scored many touchdown by running downfield cutting hard and spinning around defenders. Our team coordinated the offense from the quarterback position, helped each other move downfield by throwing the ball through the air and driving to get the first touchdown. The highlight of the season was putting up 20 points on the score board! Each athlete on the team played their position well which gave us an opportunity to score many points. On defense, Clairbourn athletes were quick and agile pulling flags and knocking the ball out of the air. Here is what the players shared about the season:


What was the highlight from the last game against Poly?

The A team made many amazing throws, catches and runs throughout the game while the B team scored multiple touchdowns!

How did players impact the games?
Joshua from 8th grade impacted the game by being the quarterback with great catches and even runs. Mauricio and Aramis’ scoring touchdowns were exciting to watch!
 
What’s the most memorable play?
At the beginning of the game, the A team was able to quickly move the ball down the field and make several touchdowns. Players from the B team stayed sharp and reacted fast when defenders came upon them and successfully passed the ball to each other.

What was the best part of this season?
The game against High Point in which the A team was tied at 20/20, and the successful touchdowns for our B team from the last game were the best parts of the season.


Our Cougars from the volleyball teams showed great spirit, teamwork, and effort. Each player made rapid progress, further developed their skill, and continued to encourage teammates. Each player made many incredible serves, spikes, countless great tips at the net, and many of them dove to the balls without any hesitation to avoid letting the ball hit the ground, and had a long rally lasting several rounds. Here are what the volleyball teams wanted to share about the season!

 
Has the team made any improvements since the first game?
Everyone was cheering for each other and we all dove for the ball trying our best. Some of us even fell on the floor a couple of times. The energy was amazing at each game.

What were some highlights you remember in the game?
There were many highlights from our last game against Poly. We started out with great serves that earned us many points. Most importantly, everyone showed up with the best attitude and great sportsmanship!

What play do you remember the most?
The games against Westridge and Poly were the two memorable games. As a team, we performed so strong at those two games in particular.
 
In what way did you use teamwork?
During the game, we double clapped and cheered for each other. We were always together. Even at moments when we lost a point, we never let ourselves down and continued to support each other. We are definitely going to miss volleyball!

The seasons for both flag football and volleyball were a great success! Clairbourn teams played with energy and excitement and they did their best at each game. It is so great to see our Cougars' dedication and commitment! We are proud of you, Cougars!
