Tough Tournament for the Football B Team

Today saw nine Year Six boys make the journey to Brampton Primary school for the Large Schools B Team Football Tournament.  We were up against teams from Hartford, Godmanchester, Brampton and Huntingdon.   

The team consisted of Adam W (goal keeper), Edward L, George P, George A, Tylah P, Ethan S, Jordan L, Henry W and Samuel K.  


The first match was against Godmanchester.  The boys started nervously, but, Crosshall had several attempts on Godmanchester’s goal.  Samuel scored the only goal of the match giving Crosshall a 1-0 win.

In the second match against Hartford, the boys had settled down and the nerves of the first match seemed to have disappeared.  Even though this game finished in a 1-1 draw, it was the most exciting game of the tournament with the play spending equal time in each other’s half of the pitch and many attempts on both goals keeping the goal keepers very busy. With minutes of the 2nd half to go, Samuel scored his second goal of the tournament, only to have Hartford equalise on the whistle of full time.

The third match against Brampton ended in a 0-0 draw.  During the 1st half, Adam made two fantastic saves that prevented Brampton from winning this match.

Match four was against Huntingdon.  This match produced the best result for the Crosshall boys, who dominated the match, with a 2-0 win.  Both goals again came from Samuel in the first half.

Final league positions were:

1      Hartford               10 points
2      Crosshall                 8 points
3      Brampton              7 points
4      Godmanchester    3 points
5      Huntingdon           0 points
