Year 7 South Ribble 5-a-side champions

Congratulations to the Year 7 Football team after winning the Year 7 South Ribble 5-a-side Tournament last Tuesday evening. 

Priory topped the group stage against Lostock Hall, Walton-le-Dale and Wellfield with 2-1, 3-1 and 7-1 wins respectively. This put them through to the semi-finals to face Leyland St Mary’s. 

Despite going a goal down, the team showed great resilience and came out 3-1 victors. This meant playing the hosts, All Hallows in the final. 

The game was very even throughout, with some great long range strikes from both teams. There was nothing to split the teams, even after extra time with the score 4-4. Down to three penalties each, Priory triumphed as Birley made two good stops meaning a 2-1 win on penalties. 

Head of PE & Sport,  Mr Bullock said, "Well done lads, some fantastic individual and team performances throughout the competition".
