Chapter 7 Football - End of Term Report
Early heavy September rain downpours made trials difficult for chapter 7 football, but this soon shaped itself out to produce a group of fifteen pupils who have the talent to eventually challenge all schools at football in Merseyside. Despite early round eliminations from both the National and Merseyside Cup there have been signs of real progress. The stand-out game was versus Calday in the Merseyside Cup having been knocked out the National Cup two days earlier. The team were two goals behind with twenty minutes remaining, but those remaning minutes was evidence that the football team are heading in the right direction by portraying tremendous effort, togetherness and determination that will be a huge benefit to this team in the second term and heading into chapter 8. There have been wins versus several teams that have included Gateacre, St Hilda's, Academy of St Nicholas and Scarisbrick.
Chapter 9 Football - End of Term Report
This talented group of footballers have eventually found the form of last academic year which keeps them in the hat for round six of the National Cup. Although, there have been the frustrations of losing in round 2 of the National Elite's on penalties and round 1 of the Liverpool Echo Shield it's hoped that this team can produce that type of form that will put them in a position to win the next round of the National Cup with only 32 schools remaining from over 700. Several pupils are also involved in a combined U14s-U15s team that have a tough but winnable away fixture in the Merseyside Cup at Cardinal Heenan in the new year. There have been many wins versus several teams that have included Cardinal Heenan, Neston, St Mary's Leyland and Bishop's Bluecoat Chester.
