On Tuesday, our boys took part in the Premier League Kids Cup. A national competition which puts the Premier League football clubs against each other through primary school football teams. Tuesday was the first round in deciding which lucky school would represent Hull City at this year’s national finals, held at Chelsea’s ground, Stamford Bridge. Our boys did fantastic! They won all of their group games comfortably, finished top of their group and automatically progressed to the regional finals. However, there were still games to be played and a winner for the evening was to be decided – CP had to play Elloughton in the semi-final.
This last game was very hard for our boys. Three games on a large pitch on a cold January night had really taken it’s toll on our boys. Despite a great effort up front from the M boys, and some heroic defence from Yeaman and Millett – the boys sadly lost 3-0.
However, this didn’t dishearten our player- they still progress to the next round and have a chance of getting through to the national finals! Time for some hard training in preparation for Feb 7th!
Well done boys and thank you parents for your support!
