Footie Festival A Real Winner

The first-ever Festival of Football between the children of Westbury Park and Bishop Road schools turned out to be a real winner last Sunday(Apr25).

Fine weather, good food, excellent beer and friendships forged - and the footie wasn't bad either.

We at the Foxes would like to thank everyone at Bishop Road for embracing the idea of an all inclusive and friendly football festival between the schools. Our one hope now is that we can do it all again next year.

**Thanks to everyone who baked and bought for the cake sale - Tupperware boxes will be brought to football on Saturday.

**A large quantity of lost property was picked up from the pitches after the Festival. This will be left - with the Tupperware - behind the Y4 goals on Saturday. Please rummage.

Saturday April 17: The plan so far...

This Saturday Y1/Y2/Y3/Y4/Y5/Y6 will be training as normal.

Penalty shoot-out practice is suspended until the following week (April 24).

Penalty Shoot-Out: This Week's Champion

This week's Penalty Shoot-Out Champion was Year Three hot-shot Joseph McMurchie.

Joseph beat off stiff competition from Year Fourers Nicholas Blatchford and Owen Paton to smash home the winning spot-kick and claim his Mars Bar prize.

Well done Joseph. Respect.

Y3 - Saturday 10th April

No formal training for Y3, only informal. Y3 coach/coaches will be on the Downs and the weather forecast is good. See you there :)

Easter Training

This Saturday (April 3) will see training for the Y2s only as all other Foxes coaches sag off and enjoy a rare weekend lie in.

The following Saturday (April 10) will see the start of intense and prolonged penalty shoot-out practice in preparation for tournament-time.

And the last weekend of the holiday (April 17) - well, who knows, anything could happen.

Watch this space.

Happy Easter!
