Warden Park girls National football success

The Academy currently has 4 girl’s teams in the English School’s FA National competitions.

The U16 team which made the ESFA Final in Chesterfield in 2012 have reached round 5 thus far with two impressive displays recently.

The first match (Rd 3) away vs Howard of Effingham School, was one of the toughest matches the team has faced in their four years together. The girls came away with a hard fought 9-8 win on penalties after fighting out a 2-2 draw, taking the lad twice through Georgia Bowen.

In Round 4 the girls faced Highlands from Enfield in a home draw. Through an excellent and confident display, the girls ran out 3-0 winners. Goals scored through Molly Towers Mode, Ellie Macintyre and Arian Jones. The U16 team will now hope for continued success in the competition as well as competing in the County competitions.

The U13 team have also reached Round 4 of their National competition. In their first match together as a team, the girls worked extremely hard and in patches looked a very impressive passing team, winning the match 5-2 vs Shoreham Academy. Tia Perry scored a debut hat-trick in her first match for the school and Alesha Simmonds and Anna Henderson scored the others. For their very first game as a new team showed some encouraging signs for future success.
