C of E Football Boys' A Team Report 2015-16

 

By Elliott Smith & Jorja Pollard of class 5B

 

‘It has been a great season so far,’ says Mr Osborne, head coach of the Chingford C of E school football team. With the team doing very well in a number of tournaments, and with a major competition next week at Tottenham Hotspur’s impressive training ground, there’s much to look forward to.

 

Mr Osborne added, ‘We want to represent the borough at Crystal Palace in the London Youth Games and being that we have good players, we have every chance!’

 

‘A highlight for me was when David Harris scored 6 goals in consecutive matches; quite an achievement!’

 

We also spoke to team captain, Jedd Coster. ‘Our greatest strength is our skill. But with more training, we can improve further.’

 

Jedd added, ‘We are a bit nervous about the competition next Friday but still looking forward to it very much and I think we can get to the Semi-Finals at least!

 

Mr Bloomfield, who helps Mr Osborne coach the team said, ‘I have seen this team improve dramatically during the season. At the beginning, they were a bit ramshackle, but now they are a well-oiled machine that is a match for anyone!

 

‘Whoever we play, I’m really confident of victory because we have great players in all positions. We are sound in defence and very creative when we push forward.’
