House of Glory was invited to a “friendly match” tournament along with other local parishes by House of Praise, Baltimore, a sister parish that had their annual picnic on Saturday, July 25, 2009. The House of Glory team was comprised of members of the dynamic, all-inclusive Synergy group of the church. A group that has being showing great potential this year!
The first match was House of Glory (HOG) vs. House of Praise (HOP), where the HOG team proved its mettle by scoring two points against their opponents – one in each half. Each half lasting for about 25mins. Both goals were secured by Tobi Onibatedo, in an adept display of skill.
Two other sister parishes, Christ Villa and Holy Ground, battled each other, with Holy Ground coming out victorious. The winning team, now a mixed team, faced off with HOG, in a battle for the tournament trophy.
They started off by scoring a goal in the first half against HOG, but the HOG players quickly got their acts together and scored a goal, thanks to the combination work of Tobi Onibatedo and Orlando (our strikers). Orlando placed the ball beautifully into the “net”.
Within the last ten minutes of the game, HOG’s Tobi Onibatedo did what he does best, and once tucked in another goal, that inevitably sealed HOG championship position.
