Whytemead Primary School

Go girls! Fantastic display from our Yr5/6 football team

Whytemead Primary School Year 5 / 6 girls football team Sept 2023
The school is enormously happy to have entered our very first girls football event this week in which we WON 3, LOST 2! This is an amazing result: well done girls!
The school community - and in particular Mrs Andrew - is so proud of Mills, Tanith, Una, Rafaella, Lillian and Rosie. You were a credit to Whytemead and showed great sportsmanship and teamwork.
Although it was a little tricky to pull a full team together, we were able to enter but unfortunately, due to sickness, we were down to 6-aside instead of 7.
As this was a festival event, rather than a competitive tournament, other schools were very understanding and gracious, either playing 6-aside also or "lending" a player so all girls were able to play.
Considering that 3 of our 6 had never even played before, they did so well, and are excited now to train as a team.
There is no placing for a festival event, but the team were asked to select a "players' player" for a medal. They voted for Millie. Great choice, great captain and what a player!
Millie is taking part in trials this Thursday for the Brighton and Hove Albion U11 team and we wish her the very best of luck.
