Churcher’s College are runners up at the ISFA Tournament

Posted on 15th Oct 2019 in School News, Competition, Sport

On Wednesday 9th October, the U11A team competed in the ISFA U11 Hampshire Region football tournament.

The team played some brilliant football, with lovely build up play and finishing in-front of goal. A highlight of the day came when Heath scored a thumping volley into the top corner of the opposition goal in a 4-0 victory over Twyford School. Out of six matches, Churcher's won five in a row without conceding a single goal, thanks to some fantastic saves by Felix. Congratulations to Teddy scoring in a 1-0 win over Downsend School in a tense and hard fought match which meant that Churcher's were the only team to beat the eventual winners.

In the end both Churcher's and Downsend finished top of the league on 15 points, but it was not meant to be for the Churcher’s boys and Downsend progressed to the National Finals on a superior goal difference with Churcher’s finishing as runners up for the 3rd year in a row. Mr Harry Pickett and Mr Matthew Forbes could not be prouder of the boys for their performance, hard work and effort throughout the day. Well done to all involved!
