ESFA Football
Tirlebrook performed positively and enthusiastically in this year's ESFA competition for Large Schools held at Tewkesbury School.
ESFA Football Competition – Tuesday 5th November @ Tewkesbury School
A squad of ten footballers from Y5 and Y6 headed over to Tewkesbury School to take part in this year’s ESFA Football Competition, the winners of which would progress to the county finals in December. Competing in the Large Schools’ section of the competition, Tirlebrook came up against five other schools. The afternoon started well as George scored a hat-trick on the way to a 5-0 victory against Queen Margaret’s. This was followed by two 0-0 draws with Carrant Brook and Mitton Manor respectively, games which Tirlebrook dominated and had good chances to score to secure a victory. The final two matches, against Tewkesbury C. of E. and The John Moore, ended in defeat despite the excellent effort of the team. School Games values bands were awarded at the competition’s conclusion; well done to George (Teamwork) and Oscar (Self-belief) for displaying the values so clearly. It was a great afternoon, and despite the disappointment of ending with two losses, the team spirit was always excellent and the positive attitude on show was a credit to our school. Many thanks to Mrs. Gosden for supporting the team and accompanying them throughout the afternoon. Well done!
Squad: Edward F & Freddie P (joint captains), William B, Oscar D, Matthew F, Ewan G, Keira H, Oakley H, Ollie K-S & George T
