The Year 7 football team played their first ever match on
Tuesday 23rd September against Kings Norton Boys School in the
Travel West Midlands Cup. A squad of 15 players were selected to represent
Arthur Terry, and all of them played their part in a very pleasing 2-1 victory.
The first half saw Arthur Terry dominate, without being
able to turn possession and chances into goals. In the second half, after
applying further pressure, captain Will Hussey broke the deadline with a fine
finish. Kings Norton levelled the game up with 10 minutes remaining with a goal
against the run of play, but with a few minutes remaining Jack Nation scored
what turned out to be the winning goal with a fine strike.
Arthur Terry saw the game out and will now play Kings
Heath Boys school in Round 2.
Jake Lamb was named man of the match after a fine
defensive performance, but the whole team did themselves proud!
