OGS Football Tournament 2019

The Annual OGS Interhouse Football tournament, held under lights on April 13 this year, was a grand success!!

The indomitable Papworth were the defending champions led by Mohammad Usman Saad, who was also the leading goal scorer with nine goals. The runners-up were Napier, who were comfortable in their victory against Streeton and Frere. Napier also picked up two individual awards for Best Goal, going to Asad Rashid and Best Goalie, going to Maroof A. Mehboob.

The festive event, packed with music and food stalls, saw the OGs coming out to support their various houses.

This year’s tournament was also historic as it saw the first ever OGS Women’s game played against strong favourites, Karachi United. The KU ladies won 3-0 to the spirited yet inexperienced OGS team and we wish the ladies the very best in future outings. Some of the players were Manahil Jeoffrey, Haaniya Rana & Mishaal Afzal.
