Whilst we love an exciting event, we were also hoping for a little less drama than last year’s festival! Thankfully whilst the event still had lots of engagement, high levels of participation and amazing teamwork, we were saved from the experience of penalty shootouts! Each team was placed into 3 pools with the top 2 going through to the next round. The standard of football was high, with some excellent runs down the pitch, great crosses, fantastic goals (and also some outstanding saves!)
We were fortunate to have both Paul Harvey from Stanley Park and Ian Burchnall from Forest Green Rovers present the medals to the winners.
Results:
Small Schools winner – Lacock
Small Schools runners up – St Peters
Girls winners – Monkton Park
Large Schools winners – Queens Crescent
Large Schools runners up – Derry Hill
Well done to all involved and good luck to those who have made it through to the next round!
