Teams from the Round Ball soccer academy in Mount Gambier finished runners-up in the South West Games at Warrnambool on Sunday.
Both the under 13 and under 15 teams came second in the seven-a-side competition against strongly credentialled opponents from across western and central Victoria.
The under 15 squad played five matches in a round-robin format, while the under 13s convincingly won their group of four to proceed to the final against eastern Melbourne team Sherbrooke.
The Round Ball under 13s raced to a 3 – 0 lead in the first half of the final before Sherbrooke recovered to draw level at the end of regular time.
A goal to Sherbrooke in the first half of extra time proved the decider.
The South West Games are dubbed regional Victoria’s premier multi-sport event.
The games involve about 60 events, with almost 6000 participants.
