Year 11 Football

Well done to the Year 11 Boys’ Football Team who got their final season off the ground with three hard-earned points against a very competent Matthew Moss Side.

A close fought game ended in a 6-4 victory for Oulder Hill! There were many candidates for Man of the Match, the accolade goes to Sulayman Qadir, not just for his two goals but for his energy and being a constant thorn-in-the-side of the Matthew Moss defence.

Well done to the squad (goals in brackets): Aadam Latif, Max Taylor, Muzamil Bashir, Ethan Pope, Thomas Johnson (1), Sulayman Qadir (2), Haaris Hamza Farooq, Joe Golden (1), Tom Stuart, Gavin Nyoni, Connor Roscoe, Steven Johnson (2), Jack Lomax, Mohid Ul-Haq and Harry Toogood.

Year 10 Football

Man of the match was Dion Parker-Minchin with a fantastic display of wing play.

Thank you to many of the team who also stayed behind after the game to help out with Open Evening.
