The Swift Current Comp was a busy place this past weekend. The Colt and Arden soccer teams hosted a double headers against Weyburn on Saturday. The soccer teams compete in the Moose Jaw League.
Both the Ardens and the Colts swept both games against the visiting Weyburn Eagles soccer teams. The Ardens won both games by scores of 4-1, the Colts won 6-0 and 12-3. A very strong start to the season for these soccer teams. Both teams will be competing in Moose Jaw, at Soccerfest, on Sept. 13-14. The Colt soccer team will get in two more games before that tournament. They travel to Moose Jaw Central on Wednesday and then host Moose Jaw Peacock on Thursday, Sept. 12.
The Colt football team took on Moose Jaw Central in 12 man action on Saturday. The home football team lost a very entertaining game against Moose Jaw Central. The final score was 35-30 for Moose Jaw. It is still very early in the season, but a promising start for both teams. The Colts host Moose Jaw Peacock on Thursday, Sept 12.
