Girls Football

After two previous tournaments had been called off due to the weather the girls football team finally got to play competitive football at a wet and windy Skegness Academy on Wednesday 18th November.

The competition was the district round of the Danone Cup with the winners going through to the County Finals.

The team of Hannah, Grace, Kenzie, Chloe, Aimee, Ava, Isabelle, Molly and Tia got off to a flying start with a 7 - 0 win against Woodhall Spa B and followed this up with a 5 - 0 win over Woodhall Spa A.

Our third game saw us beat Friskney by 5 goals to nil.

Finally, we made sure of top spot by beating Seathorne by a goal to nil.

Their success means the girls are joining our mixed team at the County Finals in Sleaford on the 16th January where they will be hoping to improve on last year's runners up spot.
