During the February half-term break, Karis took part in her first England Futsal event. Her team won their group, remaining unbeaten with victories in every match except one draw. They progressed to the final, where they finished as runners-up after a closely contested match against Ipswich.

In the April half-term holiday, Karis travelled to Manchester for a three-night tour, playing fixtures against Burnley, Liverpool and ET17 Academy. She also competed in her first Canary Cup, facing teams from Arsenal, Birmingham, Brentford, Brighton & Hove Albion, Cambridge, Colchester, Norwich City, Nottingham Forest and Peterborough.

Karis produced some outstanding performances throughout the tournament, making a number of excellent saves. In one match, she saved three penalties to help her team secure a place in the final. Although they finished as runners-up, it was an incredible achievement and a valuable experience.

During the May half-term break, Karis and her teammates continued their success with a victory over Stevenage.

Well done, Karis, on your hard work, dedication and impressive achievements. We look forward to hearing about your future successes.
