The first week of November saw Queensland’s finest from across the Ipswich Police District come together to play a group of senior students from Redbank Plains State High School in futsal.
The students come from a variety of backgrounds and the team included representatives at all levels including national level.
The police team represented rebuilt knees, ankle injuries, calf injuries and back injuries (and that was just one officer). Although the police team also contained an ex-national level player (and the current school based police officer), she was very disappointing on the day.

Whilst the police where given a lesson in skill and speed by the students, the never die attitude of the police was warmly received by the players and the crowd of students and teachers that gathered. Some humorous commentating and refereeing also added to the spectacle.
We would like to say that football
