Football
It was a mixed weekend for football results, with the Senior team facing tough defeats against a formidable Bradfield side. In contrast, the juniors enjoyed a much more successful outing. The U15A team secured a decisive 8-2 victory, while the U15C team won 2-1. The U14Bs triumphed with a close 3-2 win, and our standout performers of the week, the U14Cs, delivered an impressive 13-5 victory. Additionally, the U14As maintained their unbeaten start to the season, achieving two consecutive league wins against Shoreham Academy and Bohunt School.
The 1st XI fell to defeat in the Arthur Dunn Cup against a vengeful OL team. However, our 2nd XI performed excellently, drawing a tough match with the OLs 1-1. As voted by the OLS, the players of the match in both games were Marley R and Austin J.
