Football Finalists

Congratulations to the Year 8 boys on their excellent 2–1 victory over Shavington in the Cheshire Schools League semi-final. After finishing top of Division 2, the team faced a strong Shavington side who placed second in Division 1 this season.

The match began with sustained pressure from the opposition, but the boys showed resilience and took the lead through a well-executed goal from Leo. Shavington equalised in the second half. However, the team responded superbly, with Leo securing the win with an outstanding 20-yard strike into the top corner.

The result sees the Year 8 boys progress to the final, which will take place next Tuesday at Congleton High. This is a well-deserved achievement and reflects their hard work and commitment throughout the season. There were some outstanding performances tonight. Kier was immense in goal, Leo was a real match winner but Will K-P had the game of the season, he was unbelievable and my man of the match.

On the other pitch, the Year 10 boys were unfortunately defeated 4–1 in their semi-final. After trailing 4–0 at half-time, they demonstrated improved performance and determination in the second half, but were unable to recover the deficit.

That means the Year 7, 8 and 9 Boys teams have all reached the final of the Cheshire School league taking place at Congleton High on Tuesday 12th May kicking off at 4pm.
