Longfleet were put up against five different schools in this annual competition, held at Poole Grammar School, and left the event undefeated with 5 wins from 5. For many of the children, this was their first competitive tournament and they applied themselves brilliantly, their fielding in particular was superb. The match against St Joseph’ Primary, in which Olly was involved in 3 direct run outs and Louie took a spectacular diving catch was a highlight. The children were a credit to the school throughout and played every match with enthusiasm and a sense of fun.
Other highlights:
-An all run 6
-Not losing ia single wicket in 3/5 matches
-Scoring 295-0
-Charlie playing his first ever match and top scoring in two matches.
Longfleet played in the quarter finals of a 7-a-side football tournament against Bishop Aldhelms, which has been organised by Poole Pirates to commemorate their 70th anniversary. The match was played in good spirit, with both sides showing flair on the ball. An early goal for Longfleet, scored by Louie, was enough to win it, and although St Aldhelms had their chances, they were brilliantly saved by Bruno, who was a rock in Longfleet’s goal. The win takes Longfleet through to the semi-finals and another chance to play in front of a capacity crowd at Poole Stadium. Thank you to the parents for their support in what was a brilliant game to watch.
Longfleet held a "Mini-Olympics", with Courthill, Lilliput and Sylvan the other schools in attendance. The events were:
-70m Sprint
-Howler Throw
-Standing Long Jump
-300m Run
All the children showed fantastic resilience in the events, with the Sports Ambassadors helping them along and organising their events superbly.
Thank you to all the parents who attended the event.
Keep your eyes peeled for the forthcoming Harbourside Games, coming up in June!
