Champions: PowerLeague Football Tournament

As part of National School Sports Week, St. Vincent's were invited to a 'Euros 2016' Football Tournament at PowerLeague, Soccerdome, to participate in a Y1/2, Y3/4, Y5/6 Boys and Y5/6 Girls competition.

The day involved the teams playing in groups to establish the semi finalists in each category.  The Y1/2 team reached the final before losing narrowly 2-0 in the final.  The Y3/4 team played really well and although they didn't qualify for the semi-finals, they won their final game 6-1. The Y5/6 Boys got off to a bad start, losing their first game.  But they won their remaining games and only missed out on a semi final spot on goal difference (by one goal!).

The Y5/6 Girls were dominant in their group, winning all three of their fixtures 5-0, 7-0, 7-0.  That set up a semi final against Park Road, Sale.  Thanks to two early goals from Mollie, the girls took control, winning 5-0 and setting up a final against Elmridge.  All of the girls played superbly, winning the competition with a comfortable 3-1 win.  

During the day, the children were offered the opportunity to play 'Zorb' Football and also to have a taster session at the Oxygen Freejumping centre which was next door.  

As you can see from the pictures, the children had a wonderful day.
