Year 7 B-team kick off the season in style!

The Year 7 B-team kicked off their District Cup Campaign in style yesterday with a resounding 9-1 win over Greenwood Academy. 

The match was a first outing for the team assembled only recently and they took every advantage of the opportunity to show what they can do. 

Arthur Terry were always in control, scoring early in the game and never looking back. A lapse of concentration moments into the second half allowed Greenwood to capitalise but the game was never in doubt. 

Goalscorers from the game were Oliver Grey (3), Miles McSheffrey (2), Toby Watts (2), Owen Brophy and an OG. 

Well done to all of the squad who took part. A very accomplished performance and i'm sure a sign of real success to come! The B-team will face the winners of St Edmund Campion and Arthur Terry A-team in the next round, with that match being played on Thursday afternoon at Goodison Gardens!

Back Row - Oliver Brown, Jack Ashley, Oliver Grey, Owen Brophy, Bailey Thomson, Thierry Mellors.
Front Row - Gabriel Newey, Toby Watts, Oliver Adams-Moor, Dan Butterfield, Miles McSheffrey.

Criddle Selected for West Midlands Under 17 Netball Squad!

A lot of hard work and effort has paid off for one of Arthur Terry's GCSE PE students! Elley Criddle (Year 10) has been selected to represent the West Midlands Under 17's Netball team! 

The process was by no means an easy one though.... Elley was initially spotted representing her County team and invited to attend a trial session with the West Midlands squad. After a successful initial trial she was then invited back to perform once again, competing against and alongside some of the West Midlands' finest Netball talents. 

After what was a nervous wait for both Elley and her family, she would soon learn that further trials would follow during the month of July. During these trials she sustained an ankle injury but was able to continue in spite of this. All the hard work prior to this had paid off when Elley found out she had been successful! 

Elley will now join the academy team training on a weekly basis, continuing to develop her skill set amongst some fantastic Netball players. The opportunity is part of the England Netball National Pathway and could potentially lead to an opportunity to play at National level. We wish Elley every success as part of the West Midlands squad. 

Well done Elley!!
