This week, our Years 3–5 football teams took part in a series of exciting fixtures against Chinthurst. All matches were played in excellent spirit, with plenty of enthusiasm, teamwork, and learning on display throughout the two afternoons.
The Year 3 A team showed great determination against Chinthurst A but were narrowly defeated 3–1 in a closely fought game. Sebastian was our goal scorer. Despite the result, the boys played with real energy and are continuing to develop their passing, positioning and teamwork skills.
POTM: Sebastian Lyward
Our Year 3 & 4 mixed team produced an impressive performance against Chinthurst B, securing a 5–3 victory. The team combined well in attack and showed good awareness in defence with goals coming from Max and Harrison. For some of the children this was their first competitive football fixture so well done to them all.
POTM: Harrison Gooday
The Year 5 team faced a strong Chinthurst side and, although they lost 5–2, there were many positives to take from the match, including improved communication and some excellent individual efforts. Again, for some boys this was their first experience of a competitive football fixture.
POTM: Freddie Fencott
Overall, it was a fantastic two afternoons of football, full of learning opportunities and great sportsmanship from all involved. Well done to everyone who represented the school so proudly and thank you to Chinthurst for building this partnership.
