The Y11 boys' football team travelled to the Wirral yesterday to play in the National Cup Competition and beat their opponents (Ridgeway High School) 5-0!

The game was played in terrible conditions and despite the score being 0-0 at half time, the boys showed their class in the second half and came away as comfortable winners including a hat-trick from Thomas Farrimond. The team demonstrated a determination to win, working together in a calm and mature manner and Mr Taylor was extremely proud of them all - saying "the 90 mile, 2.5 hour round trip was worth it and the bus ride home was a very enjoyable one as we all thawed out!"

Well done to the team - you really were inspirational to others with the way you showed your strength and character on the pitch.  #Inspiringothers ACTION
