Waterton Girls Football Festival

Lesson: Physical education

On Friday the 10th of June our KS1 and KS2 girls competed in the first Waterton Girls Football Festival. The was an amazing opportunity to mix and complete with other schools and for our girls at Brierley to have the experience of playing team sports. Our KS1 girls spent the morning learning the basic football skills before placing 3rd in their mini tournament. Daisy Clarke in Class Armitage was chosen by the coaches as the star player for the whole KS1 event. We had two KS2 teams who put in an amazing effort despite this being the first time a number of players have played football competitively. One of our KS2 teams made the semi-finals of the tournament, narrowly missing out on the final with a 1-0 defeat. We have further upcoming football events with our Y3/4 girls competing on the 14th of June, Y3/s boys on the 16th of June, Y5/6 girls on the 21st of June and Y5/5 boys on the 23rd of June.We look forward to competing in the tournament next year. Here are some pictures from our wonderful day out.
