U9s compete at MCFC Football Festival

Bridgewater U9s at MCFC Football Festival

Our U9 football team performed magnificently last week at the MCFC Football Festival, narrowly missing out on this year’s final after losing to a dramatic sudden-death penalty shoot-out.

Playing at the MCFC Academy, the team acquitted themselves wonderfully, competing amongst 17 state schools from across Greater Manchester in the annual Christmas tournament.

Superb performances against Marton C of E Primary School, The Divine Mercy C of E Primary School and Stamford Park ensured Bridgewater’s place in what was to be an incredibly exciting semi-final against St. Catherine’s of Didsbury, which ended in penalties after deadlock could not be broken in extra time.

Well done to everyone who played their part in a fantastic competition. A great way to finish the year!

The personal discoveries we help our students to make about themselves, their talents and capabilities, will shape and define the rest of their lives.
