We were unlucky in this game as we had a lot of the possession, but couldn’t seem to hit the ball on target. We had many powerful runs coming from Immy Robinson and Rachel Gunn, however unfortunately the ball would not drop for us to have a real crack at goal. Tanya Gregory came on as super sub and nearly scored with her first touch, only to see her effort fly wide of the left post.Willingdon won a free kick near the edge of the D and switched on before any of the ETC girls, took an early shot and caught the ETC defence and keeper off guard to score. Despite many efforts ETC could not equalise.
MOM: RACHEL GUNN: “Strong in goal during the first half, effective passing when on pitch; unlucky not to score”.

Despite an enthusiastic approach to the game from the girls, we were outplayed in every position. Willingdon had some very strong experienced players that play regularly outside of school, which made it near on impossible for us to settle on the ball. Some good saves came from Jordanna Quinnel, but Willingdon were just too strong for us. Holly Marshal and Vicky Davies battled well going forward but we never got a clear chance to shot. Great effort from all involved.
MOM: VICKY DAVIES: “Did not shy away from any tackle and showed great strength and determination”

The PE department kicked off sports relief weekend with a sponsored mile run around the school field.
Students and staff were asked to contribute £2 and run/walk/skip/ 3 legged race whatever they could do to complete the mile circuit.
The atmosphere was good and students who took part really embraced the idea of harnessing sport to give a very powerful message about the lives of less fortunate children around the world, and raise money at the same time.
The Elite group was won by Year 9 Billy Alsop, and a special mention goes to the girls that ran a 3 legged race in fancy dress; Zoe Drummond, Eve Drummond and Amy Hylands.
£150 was raised and will be sent to the sport relief fund.
The PE department would like to say a big thank you for the efforts of every student
that took part, and to Lorraine Lynch for organising the event.

Connor Bridger played well throughout the whole match.
