🥈 2nd place out of 30+ teams! 🥈
We knew our girls had skills, but they truly excelled themselves today!
Competing in the Bolton Wanderers Tournament against more than 30 teams, they remained focused and worked well as a team to make it through to the final.
Mrs ...Hambley and Mr Jones got their just in time to proudly watch the girls play in the final game. They worked hard to keep possession in the opposing half but St Marks had a skilful striker who was tough competition.
Each girl should feel incredibly proud of their efforts and what they achieved by the end of the tournament. All staff were delighted to hear where they placed.
Thanks to Mr Ward for preparing the girls and supporting them throughout the afternoon.🥈
