Staff team share an emotional moment: it’s a game of two halves, and they won all four of them.
Once again, the girls’ football team showed us how it’s done – this time with a fantastic, high-spirited, high-energy fundraiser that raised £240.01 for equipment, kit and costs.
Many thanks for the massive support given by parents, kids and staff: the “Lucky Number” game sold out (that’s £100 right there), football-themed face-painting was a treat and the healthy snack stall was laden with goodies thanks to your generosity. For those who missed the auction, that authenticated, signed photograph of Arsenal went for £15.00, after a brief but ferocious contest.
Best of all, it was truly excellent fun. And with the football mini-tournament (Boys vs Girls, Staff vs Kids), stellar coach Naomi may just have started a Tufnell Park tradition…
-
- Fuel up on those healthy snacks – there’s football to be played.
-
- The good folk from Better showed up to give out free one-day passes – thank you, guys.
-
- Themed face-painting.
-
- Food stall busy as ever (we never missed the cakes).
-
- ‘Cos crackers taste just as good – specially with the wrapper on.
-
- Fruit kebabs are better, though.
-
- We sold out every square on “Guess the Lucky Number”.
-
- Let the games begin.
-
- They’re playing for this – trophy provided by girls’ coach Naomi.
-
- In her day job, she’s a TA – but…
-
- Boys’ team psyching themselves.
-
- And they’re off – girls vs boys.
-
- Boys’ coach looking tense.
-
- And he’s right to be – that’s a goal!
-
- Mostly, they moved too fast to photograph!
-
- Girls win 2-0! Not that they’re crowing or anything…
-
- Staff vs girls – Ms del Pozo shows her form.
-
- Plenty of passion on the side-lines, too.
-
- A coach doesn’t stop coaching just ‘cos he’s on the team.
-
- It was close – but they earned it. Staff vs Girls 1-0, Staff vs Boys 2-0. Better get training for next year, kids.
