On Tuesday 11th May, 56 Year 8 students took part in the Year 8 Mixed Football Form Tournament.
An eight team form tournament saw a competitive group phase. The top two from the two groups then met in the Semi-Finals of the Champions League. The final was contested between 8R & 8O. 8R had been the form team winning all four games leading up to the final but it was 8O that took home the title, winning late on in a dramatic sudden-death penalty shootout.
The two teams in each group that finished 3rd & 4th then played two competitive semi-finals in the Europa Cup. The Final was eventually won by 8H who had signed a few extra players at the start of the tournament.
Huge congratulations to all that took part. It was such a great success that the tournament may run again in the coming months. Rumours suggest it could be billed as a World Cup tournament.
W. Ford picked up the Player of the Tournament award for leading 8R to Champions League glory.
Both trophies are now on display in the Year 8 trophy cabinet in the north corridor.
Well done to all that took part.
