Year 3/4 football match against Grewelthorpe
19 Jul 2023
A big well done to the Fountains class 3 footballers who played class 3 from Grewelthorpe on Monday afterschool - in what was a very close and well played football match. The game was played as four 8 minute quarters to allow each player a fair amount of time on the pitch. The pupils playing in the first quarter started off well with a goal in the first five minutes against a strong Grewelthorpe side. There was also fantastic work in defence and in goal, as a few shots on target were deflected and saved. Fountain’s were one goal ahead going into the second quarter but the Grewelthorpe team soon equalised, as players from each team seem to be very well matched. In the end, with some great tackles and passes down field the score ended in 3 goals to 2, to Fountains. Well done to all who played you all showed very mature attitudes and teamwork along with your evident football skills. You all made the school proud and we hope you look forward to playing again in the fixtures due to take place next year.
Thankyou again to Mr Whitford who kindly refereed whilst passing helpful coaching tips to both teams during the match and to all the supporters who came to watch.
Mrs Field
