On Saturday 5th October Greenfield Community College took part in the annual 8-a-side BASFA (Bishop Auckland School Football Association) competition for Year 8’s.
Greenfield came top of the board in their group during the first part of the tournament – winning 3 out of 4 games against the local teams.
The team played Ferryhill in the semi-finals and won to go on to the finals, which they won after a tense game which went into extra time against Durham Johnston.
The group scored a last minute goal followed by a few minutes of magnificent defending during the last 5 minutes. Well done to the team of boys from Greenfield, in particular Adam Scott who scored 9 goals over the course of the tournament!
The team included Ellis Plews, Josh Mellanby, Lewis Rigg, Josh Hay, Adam Lamb, Sam Thompson, Harry Hobbs, Bailey Howarth and Adam Scott, pictured with their BASFA 8-a-side tournament trophy! A special thank you to M. Hodgson Builders for sponsoring the Year 8 Football kits.
