Year 3/4 football team win tournament at UCEA

Last Wednesday we took a team of 8 year 3 and 4 children to the academy for a tournament. The children had never played together before so we didn’t really know what to expect. The tournament took place throughout torrential rain which seemed to add to the excitement. 

The children played fantastically well and managed to win their group which meant they were in a final against Our Lady’s . This proved to be a very close, tense match which ended in a draw 1-1. This meant penalties ! Ryan Turner was the hero. He stepped out of goal to take the 4th penalty and then returned to goal to make the save that meant Whitby Heath were the winners! 

We are very proud of all the boys and they each had an important role to play in the victory. Congratulations to Adam Heaps, Lamin Manjang, Stanley Williamson, Orion Jones, Jack Terry, Efe Ceran, Finleigh Mills, Ryan Turner.
