Alexandra Primary School
This cluster tournament took place on Tuesday 22nd January 2019 and was held at Goals Gillette Corner and included 10 Hounslow Primary Schools, in and around our cluster. Our team of 8 girls was ably coached by Peter Hollins who holds a qualified football and referee qualification. We were doing well at the start of this competition, with APS winning one match and scoring a draw in the second. Unfortunately the snow started to come down that day, thus making conditions not suitable for the tournament to continue. As of yet, we have not heard if the tournament will be rescheduled for a later date. However, our girl’s football team will continue to practise throughout the rest of the academic year with Mr Hollins and Miss Smith running the girls football club after school from Spring 2. Alexandra in the past has only ever trained and had Year 6 boys for football. However, this year we now have a girls’ team and have also started to train children from Year 5. This means that by the time the team reaches Year 6, they would have had plenty of training, skills and knowledge.
