Year 4 Girls at the BLUs Tournament 20th June







What a great Tournamnet for the Foxes - it made my father's day and I don't even have a daughter.


We took a squad a 9 - Sophie Mc (Cpt), Anna D, Sophie C, Ella T, Molly H, Phoebe, Marielle, Emily C, Bryony - to play all comers at the BLUs Tournament.



Our group started with a 0-0 draw against Longwell Green U10s who ended up pipping us for second spot and a place in the semi. Then came a great 2-0 win against the BLU's Colts with goals from Anna D and Captain McConnell (and our best ever goal celebration).



We then played the giants from the land of St Nicks U10s who are really rather good and really very big. We may have lost this one but a win in our final group game would have given us a chance of progressing. Up came another BLUs side and it is fair to say that, if Phoebe's shot had gone in rather than hitting the post, a win would have been a fair result. In the end we had to settle for a draw and third place in a group of 5 - in an U10s Tournament. And we are only U9s in case you haven't noticed.



All the girls should be proud of themselves - because we are. All the way from Marielle in goal to the midfield trio we were excellent but Bryony deserved to be named player of the Tournament.
