Our Year 3 and 4 girls team qualified for the Norfolk School Games finals by winning the South Norfolk Tournament before Christmas. The team played really well and had some very close games against tough opposition. They finished the tournament in 14th place which is quite an achievement as they were up against some very big schools from across Norfolk. One Spooner Row player was given a special award at the end of the competition for her determination. She had never played in a football competition before but did amazingly well. As ever, the Spooner Row team was very well supported. Thanks to those parents and carers that cheered on the team throughout the tournament. Thanks also to Mrs Wells for her coaching expertise.
