Girls Futsal (Brazilian Indoor Football) Tournament 28 January 2020

The girls ventured to Edmonton County to participate in a 5 a side Futsal (Brazilian Indoor Football) Tournament.

 

Playing 7 matches:

 

1st Match v Raglan: Won 2-0

A fantastic start to the tournament. The girls showed enthusiasm, drive and excitement for what was to come.

 

2nd Match v Edmonton County: Won 2-0 

After a positive start, the girls confidence saw them through to another well deserved victory.

 

3rd Match v Grange Park: Lost 1-0

Grange Park who finished top presented us with a strong competition, however the girls battled hard and only came away with a 1-0 defeat. 

 

4th Match v Eversley: 1-1 draw

Again another tough game, against a very strong and experienced team. The girls came away with a draw - a result to be proud of.

 

5th Match v Oakthorpe: 1-1 draw

An exceptional game. The girls played with confidence resulting in another draw.

 

6th Match v St James: Won 1-0 

Our penultimate game was against St James and this ended in a 1-0 victory for St Andrews.

 

7th Match v Houndsfield: Lost 1-0 

Last but not least, we were narrowly defeated by Houndsfield who finished 2nd overall.

 

The tournament ended with St Andrew's Southgate finishing in 4th position with 11 points. Another great achievement and a proud moment in particular, given that 4 out of the 7 girls had never taken part in a competitive football match!

 

The girls represented their school with pride.
