Football Tournament

Our football team took part in a tournament at Bushmead Primary School. The team played expertly, finishing second and winning the final match 4-0!

Quad Kids Competition

This afternoon, Year Five and Year Six pupils made their way to St. Ives to take part in the Huntingdonshire Schools Sports Partnership’s Quad Kids Competition. Quad Kids is an athletics combined event, like the decathlon and heptathlon. The athletes each took part in the following four events: 600m run, 75m sprint, standing long jump, and howler throw. Each athlete’s times and distance are converted to points which accumulate to make the team’s score.

Our Team A consisted of: Elise H, Yuliia C, Amelia C, Poppy A, Leo T, David E, Charlie B, and Daniel S. 

Our Team B were: Beau Z, Isabella O, Francesca L, Ava B, Callum N, Matthew H, Josh T, and Jack C.

The children battled hard in all their events, and showed great sportsmanship by cheering on their team-mates as well as athletes from other schools. 

After a long and tiring day, we were rewarded with Team A finishing a fantastic first place, and Team B finishing a brilliant Third place. This is an exceptional result if we keep in mind that there was also a competition in the morning and nearly 350 children took part throughout the day. The results from both the morning and afternoon competitions were combined to give the overall results.

An extra special mention goes to Yuliia who won the individual girls’ competition.

Gymnastics Competition

Today, our gymnasts just missed out on a place in the county finals, placing 3rd out of 26 teams! 

Superstar gymnasts! 

They all performed amazingly well and have showed a lot of resilience and dedication over the last couple of months. We were very proud of them! Well done Sahvana, Isla, Brooke, Roxy, Scarlett and Alfie (Who even travelled back from the Y3 Residential to compete!)

Boys’ A Team Football Tournament

Today was a bitterly cold and windy Thursday. However, 10 Year Six boys travelled to Westfield Junior School, St Ives, to take part in the Large Schools ‘A’ Team Football Tournament. 

Our squad consisted of Harvey, Aston, Oliver, Joshua B (GK) Alex, Ollie, Mason, Joshua H, Reece & Patrick. 

We only played 3 matches with mixed fortunes. 

Crosshall 1 – 0 Westfield

Our first match was very fast paced and evenly matched until near the end of the first half when Aston broke through to score the only goal. 

Thorndown 1 – 0 Crosshall

Joshua made an amazing save in the first half by leaping like a salmon and deflecting the ball over his cross bar. 

Stukeley 2 – 0 Crosshall

This match was a tougher match, but, all the boys put up a good battle. 

We would like to say thank you to all the parents who supported the team and transported the boys to and from the fixture and to Mr Hamilton who refereed, coached and team managed for the tournament. 

Huntingdonshire District Large Schools Tag Rugby Competition 2019

Today, eleven Year Six children took part in the Huntingdonshire District Large Schools Tag Rugby Competition. 

 

 

Our team was made up of: Ryan G, Harry B, Joshua H, Harley M, Johan T, Patrick B, Ollie W, Oscar M, Joshua L, Ella R, Alice P and Chloe B. 

 

For some, the experience of playing rugby is something they are used to; others were playing in their first competition. 

 

 

We were placed in Pool 1 of the A Team Competition. 

 

We started out with a 3 -5 loss to Brampton Primary, with Oscar, Harley and Patrick all scoring tries. 

Next came Bushmead Primary and a convincing 1 -6 victory; tries from Joshua L, Johan, Oscar and Ryan. 

 

 

Our third game versus Ramsey Junior and a 1 -9 win! In that game, Harley, Johan, Patrick, Oscar, Ryan and both Joshuas were on the score sheet.

Next up were Roundhouse Primary, who beat us 7 -5 in a very close game: Joshua H, Ryan and Ollie got our tries. 

Our final pool game came against Warboys Parimary and ended in a 6 -2 victory for Crosshall, with tries coming from Ryan, Patrick, Harley, Oscar and Joshua L. 

 

 

As a result of our fine performances in the Pool Stage, we progressed to the 5th/6th Place Play Off, after finishing third in our pool. 

In this play off game, we were drawn against Thorndown Primary. The game ended in a 3 -3 draw (Oscar and Patrick scored) and us sharing joint fifth place in the competition.

 

Everyone took part as team players, with excellent sporting attitude and looked to enjoy their afternoon of competition. A result of joint fifth really shows how well they played together as a team. The three girls on the team particularly played a key role in defence and frequently preventing the opposition scoring.Well done to all!

A Team Football Tournament

B Team Football Tournament

Today, Crosshall hosted the Hunts District Primary Schools FA Group C, B Team Tournament. The visiting teams were Winhills, Middlefield, Huntingdon and Buckden. 

The Crosshall Team was made up of a mixture of Year Fives and Sixes; Aston D, Joshua B, Ewan B, Ryan G, Alex A, Will G, Willow B (GK), Barney C, Kye F, Charlie B and Daniel B. 

The team put up a great performance to finish third.

Crosshall 0–2 Winhills

Our first match was against Winhills. We kicked off the match and fought hard against the skills of Winhills. Unfortunately, they were a little too strong for us.

Crosshall 1–0 Buckden

The second match was against Buckden. We had several attempts on their goal and eventually Aston broke through to score the only goal of the match. 

Crosshall 0–0 Middefield

Our third match was against Middlefield. This was a tough, but equally matched, game with both teams having many attempts on goal, but nobody could break the deadlock.

Crosshall 0–0 Huntingdon

Our fourth and final match was against Huntingdon. Again, this was another close match with both teams having several attempts at goal but none were successful.

The team displayed the Crosshall Values during the whole tournament and played fantastically.

Crosshall Win First Football Tournament of the Season

Today saw the first football tournament of the season at Crosshall.  We were up against teams from Hartford, Priory, Brampton and Huntingdon schools in the Large Schools ‘A’ Team Tournament. The team consisted of Robbie W, Jacob W, Ben H-P, Jakob G, Luke A, Junior H, Tom H, Bradley Y and Alex B in goal.

The first match saw Crosshall take on Hartford in a thrilling 2 – 0 win.  Hartford kicked off the first half and Junior opened the scoring.  Hartford earned a penalty which was expertly saved by Alex.  In the second half, Robbie scored the second goal giving Crosshall a comfortable win.

The second match saw the boys take on Huntingdon in which was probably the most exciting match of the afternoon.  The boys again came away with a 0-1 win. Both goal keepers were kept busy with numerous attempts on their goals.  The goal in this match came from Robbie. There was a pause in proceedings as Mr Henson had to go under the hedge to retrieve the ball!  Alex prevented this game from ending in a draw with a fantastic save right on the whistle of full time.

The third match was against Priory ending in a 0-0 draw. This was quite a quiet game and neither goal keeper was troubled much.

The final game was against Brampton and again finished in a 0-0 draw.  Although this match ended in a draw, most of the play took place in Brampton’s half.  Despite relentless attacking from Crosshall, the Brampton goal keeper stood firm.  Despite many near misses Crosshall could not break the deadlock.

Final league positions were:

1      Crosshall          8 points

2      Huntingdon       6 points (goal difference)

3      Brampton          6 points

4      Priory                5 points

5      Hartford            1 point

Crosshall now have to wait to hear who won the other Large Schools tournament.
