Sofia R (5 B) was a flagbearer at the 2023 FIFA Womens World Cup match on 25 July, Columbia vs Korea. Sofia and her sister Jess travelled to Sydney, practiced what they had to do in the early hours of Tuesday morning and walked on to the Allianz Stadium field with the national teams just before kickoff at midday. 

The atmosphere was electric, both girls had an amazing experience and made memories to last a lifetime. They were kitted out from head to toe in Adidas gear and got to keep all of it as a momento. 

So far Sofia has been to the Matildas vs Ireland game, a flagbearer at the Columbia vs Korea game and will be going to a quarter final match in August. Sofia's favourite player is Ellie Carpenter and hopes one day to follow in her footsteps and play for the Matildas!
