Y5/6 Boys Football - 5th place
A very competitive day on the football pitch for this group in a strong 10 team excel league. The team began the group stage with a narrow defeat to eventual finalists Old Dalby (1-2). The boys responded with positive attitudes and a performance to match to beat Swallowdale (2-0). Next up was the most clinical passage of play Miss Griffin has seen at a primary football event. From kick off, the team executed a play to perfection, 3 passes involving 3 different players and the ball was in the net within 10 seconds. Unbelievable Jeff! The team continued to produce some fantastic football to finish 2-0 winners against Bottesford B. The last gorup game saw the team battle hard but finish in defeat to eventual winners Brownlow A (0-2), leaving the team 3rd in the group and missing out on the semi-finals by 1 point. A fantastic effort from all involved and lots of learnings to take away. Big thank you to our parent volunteers transporting and supporting the team.
