Girls football match V St John's

Thursday 24th March 

This afternoon we hosted yet another friendly match and this time we welcomed St John’s girls to our school. We started with a bang and within minute of KO Maya opened the scoring after a great pass from Lillie in the penalty area. Not long afterwards Darcy  scored our 2nd goal, we were playing really well and most of the possession was in the St Johns half. Half time the score was 2-0. 
In the second half we had lots of chances and Darcy in particular had  a few 1:1 with the keeper but couldn’t capitalise on any of them. 
Finally after a few subs Maya came back on and scored her 2nd goal to make it 3-0. Then St. John’s scored an absolute cracker of a goal that Daijah had no chance of saving. 
The final score was a 3-1 win to SHA.

Year 5&6 also had a game tonight and played really well. Maya opened the scoring after a great pass from Darcy and then Darcy and Maya between them had lots of chances to score more but the goalkeeper was very good and kept saving their shots. 
Gateford then equalised to make it 1-1 at half time. 
In the second half  Isla and Destiny defended really well and Esmee on the left had a good game. Maya managed to score again to make the final score 2-1 to us. 

Year 3&4 Girls V Gateford Park

Thursday17th March

Tonight there were 7 girls representing school for the first time and they were an amazing credit to our school and to themselves. We could not be prouder. Cary’s opened the scoring with a dribble from half way and shot on goal but Gateford equalised 5 minutes later and then took the lead just before half time. 
In the second half Lyra scored an amazing goal to equalise again and then it was pretty even, India had a great game in defence and Daijah made some fantastic saves. Gateford then scored from a penalty after a handball from us in the area. We managed to score again to make it 3-3 but in the first al few seconds Gateford scored once more and the final score was 4-3 to Gateford. 

Girls match V CarrHill

Friday 4th March

Well done Girls on an all round team performance today and for some of you the first time you have ever played a match. It took a while to get the right formation but eventually everyone settled and started to play as a team. 
We had most of the possession in midfield and eventually managed to score during a goal mouth scramble. 
However as often happens CarrHill equalised within minutes. 
In the second half we changed things round and took a gamble with 2 defenders, Alexa and Destiny. 
That allowed for 3 in midfield and Darcy as a striker. The gamble  paid off and with Lillie so strong in midfield she found Darcy totally unmarked to score her first hat-trick. 
Then Maya scored after great positioning from a corner to make it 5-1.

There were debuts for Amie, Ruby, Alexa  and Daijah who played her first game for school in goal. She was awarded the player of the match by the CarrHill teachers. 
CarrHill scored another goal just before full time to make the final score 5-2 .
