Congratulations to our incredible Year 8 Girls football team, who claimed victory in the U13 Utilita EFL Cup on Friday, 7th November!
The competition, hosted by Saints Foundation at the prestigious Staplewood Training Ground, saw our Oasis Mayfield team dominate the group stages, finishing top after six hard-fought games.
In the semi-final, the girls faced St George Catholic College, a team they had battled against earlier in the group stages. In a tense match, they secured a brilliant 1-0 win, earning their place in the final against Oasis Academy Sholing.
The final was a nail-biter, with very little separating the two sides. Ultimately, the winner was decided by sudden-death penalties, and our girls held their nerve to take the trophy!
As a result of this fantastic achievement, the team will now represent Southampton in the next stage of the competition. We can’t wait to hear more from Saints Foundation about what’s next for these talented players.
Well done, Year 8 – we’re so proud of you!
