Football Tournament—Tuesday 23rd September—District Champions!
Last Tuesday, 10 of our year 5s and 6s went to represent our school at the Ormskirk/Tarleton football tournament - the first event of the year! As always, expectation and excitement was high and our boys quickly got into their stride, winning their first three games. We then played out a very frustrating 0-0 draw, with the Lordsgate team missing a glut of chances to win the game. It became tense in the final few games as it became clear that the chance for glory was in the offing. We won our next 2 games, including a comeback win against Tarleton, to set up a final showdown against Ormskirk CE school. A tense affair was settled with the final kick of the game as Cody raced through to score - a goal that meant we had been unbeaten all evening and were rightly named CHAMPIONS!!! Very well done to all of the boys who contributed so well to this success: Edward P, Ben, Cody, Stevie, Stanley, Jamie, Joe, Tommy, Lucas & James.
