Congratulations to our Year 7/8 Football Team who have emerged from a tournament this week as champions of Merseyside!

The team faced sides from schools across Merseyside, with all matches being contested in blazing heat. Nevertheless, the side progressed from the group stage unbeaten against Gateacre, Wirral Grammar, West Kirby and Litherland. 

The semi-final brought victory against a strong side from St Cuthbert's that saw a tense final against a team from De La Salle. The opposition took an early goal in the final and defended their lead robustly, only to fall to an equaliser in the dying seconds of the game.

It was then all about temperament as the players lined up to take penalities. Nerves held for our gallant players and they emerged as tournament champions!

Congratulations to Faith, Imogen, Grace, Ella, Libby, Jessie, Luella, Maisey, Annabelle, Scarlett and Freya on a magnificent tournament.
