Futsal, Milton Keynes
Last Thursday, we took both a boys' and girls' team to Milton Keynes to compete in the county finals. It was a new experience for most involved, having never played this sport before. The morning was spent with the boys' tournament, competing against four other teams. They started really well, beating the first two teams confidently. It all came down to the final game to be crowned county champions, but were unfortunate to be up against a strong Gerrards Cross team, resulting in our boys finishing second.
This led onto the afternoon in which it was the girls' turn. Having watched the boys and seeing how much quicker it was, they had an idea of how to play, but again it was the first time playing for a number of those involved. Unfortunately, the girls' lost their first game, but they fought back well and won the next game, finally drawing the last game against Gerrards Cross; they also finished in second place.
It was a very enjoyable day with both teams competing well, representing our school admirably and thoroughly enjoying the occasion.
