U11 Football Team Qualify For The Nationals
We are so proud of our U11 Football team who have qualified for the National Finals, finishing 4th out of 19 teams at the ISA Midlands 5-a-side Football Tournament on Monday.
Knowing that they had to start quickly, their first match was against a very talented Crescent team. Impressively, Crackley worked tirelessly to restrict their opponents, which included a penalty save from Josh. A great start saw Crackley beating Crescent 2-1, consequently lifting their confidence as a team. Throughout the day, almost every match was played against skilful teams but through hard work and a tenacious attitude, Crackley finished 2nd in a group of 10, playing 9 matches, winning 6, drawing 2 and only losing 1. As a result, they qualified for the semi-finals. Eventually, after two extremely tough matches, Crackley finished in 4th place.
Head of Games, Mr Stedeford, commented on the excellent attitude of the children and every single one of them should be immensely proud of their achievement, they thoroughly deserved their success.
Well done to Josh, Isaac, Wade, Vaughan, Scarlett, Leo, Theo and Ryan!
