St Hugh's School Football Tournament

posted on 11th Nov 2008

The five schools that took part were St Hugh's (near Puckeridge) Sherrardswood (Welwyn), Duncombe (Hertford), St Joseph's In The Park (Hertingfordbury) and Loyola (Buckhurst Hill). They each entered football teams for the Under 11's and Under 9's.

The St Hugh's Under 9's team played some fantastic football to win the Under 9's tournament. They played five matches, won five, scored ten goals and conceded two goals. The final was against Duncombe School, where goals from Kene Chigbo and Andrew Byrne in the second half gave St Hugh's the victory!

The Under 11's final was won by St Joseph's in the Park after beating Loyola.

Mr Gary Goodfellow, the Sports Manager at St Hugh's School and tournament organiser said: "All of the school's teams played extremely well, demonstrating some excellent skills, both in attack and defence, in particular the winning teams from both St Hugh's and St Joseph's. Well done boys!
