Y4 Boys Miss Out In Thrilling Clifton Final



Congratulations to the Y4 boys who came so close to winning the Clifton United Tournament at the weekend.

The team, consisting of Jack Clarke, Jacob and Raul Gibson, Ollie Kieran, Sam Lawes, Joey Martin-Tulloch, Sonny Singh, Max Thrasher (capt), Archie Watts and Danny Wistow, played superbly well and were unlucky to miss out on victory in the final. Danny hit the post and in a three-on-three extra time Sam came so close to scoring.

St Nicks next - COME ON THE FOXES!

Y4s Crowned "Best Of The Rest" At Thornbury


Congratulations to the Y4 boys for their success in the Thornbury Tournament last weekend.

The team, consisting of Aidan, Harry, SamL, Joey, Max, Seb, Archie and Danny, scooped the Consolation Cup.

On their journey to the final they won their first ever penalty shoot-out sudden death (hurrah) and beat the other Foxes' Y4 team in the semi-final (a bitter-sweet moment for us all).

And well done to all the Foxes teams who played at Thornbury - their effort and behaviour was a credit to the club.

COME ON THE FOXES! - and good luck at the Clifton Tournament this Sunday.

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.

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!
