Earlier this afternoon, a selection of girls from across Year 4 and 5 got to take part in a new and exciting football event, held on the 3G pitches at David Ross Sports Village.

 

Alongside the University of Nottingham, the FA organised this event to encourage more girls to get involved in the sport and to continue to do so as they grow older.

 

Our team didn’t need much (if any!) convincing to play football, with similes on their faces seen throughout the many games they played.

 

Although wins, draws or losses weren’t recorded – our team did extremely well and scored lots of goals along the way. Great work one and all!

 

The girls involved in the UoN KS2 Football Festival were: Lily E, Freya C, Sophie A, Meerab A, Wanya M, Benan E, Jenan E, Sadaf H, Bhakti G, Sachina S and Katie A.
