An achievement milestone for our U13 footballers
Last Wednesday our U13 boys football team, accompanied by Mr Riley and 9 very excited parent supporters, travelled the 2 and a bit hours to Lancaster to take on Carnforth High School U13’s in round 5 of the English Schools Football Association National Cup.
This was the first time that any Newminster football team has made it this far in a National tournament and a win here would have seen us into the last 8 in the country.
Under 13 Boys Football – ESFA CUP
Our Newminster Year 8 boys football team successfully progressed to the 5th round of the National Cup this week after a pulsating cup tie away at Seaton Burn.
After going behind twice, Newminster showed great character and team spirit to fight back to draw level at 2-2 with goals from Jamie Barry and Joe Briddon.
Extra time could not separate the teams but Newminster came out eventual winners 7-6 on penalties,
Robert Eadington making the crucial saves and Ben Michelson scoring the winning penalty. Our Year 8 boys now face a tricky away tie against Carnforth High School from Lancaster in round 5.
