Boys Football - Gallagher Stadium Tournament: September 2024

Gallagher Stadium Boys Football Tournament 23rd September 2024

 

Ten Year 6 boys took part in the Stones Community Football Tournament on Monday 23rd September against 35 other primary schools. This tournament coincided with the International Day of Peace and Maidstone United is the first football stadium in Kent to twin with the International Peace Field located at Messines in Flanders Belgium and the seventieth stadium to do so across the world. The children got to celebrate this in a presentation of a certificate to show the twinning.

 

The children competed in 5 matches, all of which were very tough games.  They all performed brilliantly, loosing one game, drawing three and wining one. Sadly, this was not quite enough to see Harrietsham through to the next round. Thank you to parent's for supporting and transporting the children to and from the event. They were an absolute pleasure to take and represented the school excellently.

 

Here is what the children had to say:

 

Nathaniel: "I really enjoyed playing as part of a team".

Henry: "The games were challenging, we had a good time".
