As we had 5 games to play, we rotated the positions and everybody was out of their comfort zone but we all pulled through and adjusted the rota to benefit each individual. Since it was only 5-a-side games, there were 4 subs sitting at the side cheering on each game, giving the current players more determination and more reason to win.

Having won 4 out of 5 games, we had progressed to the semi-finals but unfortunately lost our first battle, leaving one chance to win 3rd place. The match wasn’t easy and both teams were fantastic, ending in a tie. We had one last chance to become third out of 10 Schools and the match went into extra time. Our team passed the ball down to our net leaving Faye to score the golden goal (a very, very important one.) What a team effort!
