We were delighted though with our brilliant display winning 5 -2 away from home. We then began to dominate Albie played a fantastic ball to Jay who sent a brilliant header through to Harry who finished it nicely.īefore the final whistle, however, we gave away an easy goal due to a mistake from one of the defenders. From great pressing, we then forced Emmanuel to score in their own net: 4-1 Cranborne. Into the second half we played some nice football Albie sent a nice ball to Jay, who slotted it into the bottom corner. GOAL! 2-0 Cranborne! Although, unfortunately, just before half time, Emmanuel scored to make it 2-1, after a lapse in our concentration. Picking their heads up, though, Archie slotted the ball to Otis on the wing, who played a nice ball into the box, which was deflected by the Emmanuel centre back into Archie’s path… Our play maker shot with venom … it hit the post! Fortunately, it fell perfectly for the winger, Albie: 1-0 Cranborne!įollowing this, Otis played a nice ball to Jay, on the wing who passed accurately to Connor, who tapped it home. Team: Ben(GK) Myles, Jack(DEF) Archie(C) Otis, Ryan, Albie(MID) Jay, Connor(ST), Harry(SUB)Ĭranborne got this away game started well, but were quickly feeling hard done by after they thought a push on Archie in the penalty area was not awarded with a penalty.

Sometimes sport is about more than just winning and you proved that today.īoys team: Nathan, Archie, Albie, Myles, Otis, Alex and Ben Whilst many may be feeling a little disheartened tonight, they can look back on their efforts with pride and know for the first time ever. They gave their all, were impeccably behaved and above all, they helped, encouraged and supported their team mates through all of their events with maturity and camaraderie. I could not have asked for any more from each and every one of the athletes. With some displays of brilliant sprinting, throwing and jumping, the year 6 team finished runners up just TWO POINTS behind the winners, Allenbourn! The entire range of emotions was experienced: excitement, nervousness, elation, disappointment and frustration. After some tremendous efforts at today's PEDSSA Sportshall Athletics competition at Ferndown Upper School, our group of Year 6 athletes came the closest Cranborne Middle School have ever come to taking the title away from Allenbourn.
