U11 Football Tournament at Caterham Prep School – Saturday 14th October 2023

We arrived at Caterham School at 8.30 on a beautiful Saturday. The sun was shining as Oakhyrst Grange took to the pitch to start their warm up.  The first match was against Aberdour School which we unfortunately lost 6 – 0, then came Reigate who won 3 – 0, but we were starting to work as a team and showing real teamwork.

Elmhurst was next and we fought back a goal when we were 2 – 0 down, Hartley managed to slip one past the Elmhurst goalkeeper. Finally we played Caterham for the tournament plate and though we lost 2 – 0 we were communicating well and playing as a team.

We all agreed that though we lost we had such fun playing with our new team. Special mention to Vincent and Jude who played so well in goal, Connie for being a rock in defence and Hartley for the great goal.

Huge thanks to Caterham staff for all their help.
