On Tuesday, 12th May, our Year 7, 9, and 10 football teams travelled to Stokesley. Although the final scores were not in our favour, it was a proud afternoon for the PE Department as our pupils showcased our core school values of RESILIENCE and RESPECT against tough opposition.

Match Highlights:

⭐ Technical Skill: Year 7 pupil Zakk Brown demonstrated his BEST by scoring a clinical goal after executing a perfect "rainbow flick" over a defender. 

⭐ Consistency: Year 10 Ellie-Mae Reid was outstanding as always. As the only female player on the pitch, her performance was a masterclass in skill and RESILIENCE, earning the full RESPECT of her teammates and opponents alike.

⭐ Goal Scorers: The Year 10s showed great offensive spirit, with Liam Smith and Matthew Senivota both scoring excellent goals and contributing brilliantly to the team's play.

⭐ Continuous Challenge: The Year 9 squad pushed their opponents throughout the afternoon, with the Stokesley coaching staff specifically highlighting the impressive performances of Lukas Ellis and Frankie Dempster.

⭐ Leadership: Despite being sidelined by injury, Corey Hillman took on the RESPONSIBILITY of Year 10 Team Manager. His commitment to his teammates is a testament to the strong RELATIONSHIPS within the squad.

Reflecting on the day’s football matches, Head of PE, Mr Lawson, said:

"I was incredibly proud of all three squads; the level of effort and sportsmanship across the board was fantastic. Even when the results were going against us, the pupils stayed focused and played with real heart. A huge thank you to Stokesley for hosting us and providing such a high standard of competition. It was a great afternoon for school sport."
