Year 1 and 2 Football ’Teamwork Makes the Dream Work!’


Our Year 1s and 2s travelled to Tideswell to compete in the cluster schools football tournament, and they did not
disappoint. One of our teams qualified for the semi-finals after two comprehensive group-stage victories, where they
scored 10 goals without reply. Unfortunately, some resolute defending and a breakaway goal were enough for Tideswell
to prevent our Infants reaching the final. That being said – our teams did not come away from the tournament empty
handed.
During every cluster schools’ event, the officials, organisers and coaches look out for a specific sporting quality within
the teams that are competing. Throughout this event, they were looking for schools which demonstrated great levels of
teamwork.
Stanton’s two teams were awarded the trophy for outstanding teamwork. Throughout each game and during the
coached sessions, our infants supported and encouraged each other. Their passing and overall team cohesion on the
pitch was also a joy to watch, as were the giant celebrations in the middle of the pitch each time a goal was scored,
which saw the entire team huddle together to share the joy!
