Earlier today a handful of Year 2 chikdren were selected to attend the Havering 5-a-side festival of football.
None of these children have played together before but despite a nervous start you wouldn't of known this team hadn't played together.
Clockhouse started with a bit of a wobble trying to find their feet and went behind to St Peters. As the game went on Clockhouse grew into the game but time rannout before Clockhouse could equalise. Another minute or two and this could of been a very different story.
From that moment Clockhouse just seemed to click going on a scoring frenzy. Clockhouse's first win came against Collier Row rivals St Patrick's. Clockhouse winning 2-1 thanks to goals from Finn N & Jayden C and some fearless goalkeeping from Teddy M.
Next up was Oakfields, Clocks again were ruthless infront of goal Finn N with a hattrick to see off the private school.
In our final game Clockhouse met St Joseph's. Despite going behind early Clockhouse showed just how dedicated they were to come back & win the match 4-2. Finn N finding the net 4 times in as many minutes.
Clockhouse finished 2nd overall in a very pleasing, fun day.
Mr Yarrow reflected on the day saying 'These children have been a credit to the school today. Fun, energy, & passion on show from the first minute of the day until the last. Later on in the year there will be another year 2 competition which I look forward to mixing some of todays team with some other new faces. The children on show today have a bright sporting future, well done to all! Thank you also to all the parents who stayed to support the team.'
SQUAD: Teddy M, Bella C, Janice O, Jayden C, Finn N, & Frankie S.
PLAYER OF THE TOURNAMENT: Finn N
