On Thursday lunchtime the elite staff team took on the 6th form in a charity football match to raise money for Cancer Research and the Alzheimer’s society.
The 6th form took the lead early through a tap in following a defensive lapse. Despite the game going back and forth, the scoreline remained the same until half time.
Minutes into the second half a clearance from a 6th form defender was misjudged and bounced over Mr. Li and despite the best efforts of Mr Coward, he ended up putting the ball in his own net 0-2. The staff responded almost instantly with a bullet header from caretaker, Ethan Thompson. Despite staff pressure they could not make a breakthrough, until moments from time Mr. Cyburt found space on the edge of the box to unleash an unstoppable shot to square the game at 2-2, which is how it finished.
Most importantly £424 was raised for two excellent causes.
