Year 7 & 8 girls took part in the Premier League Schools tournament at Walker Activity Dome on Tuesday 11th February.

Drawn in Group 1, they topped their group on 10 points (from Excelsior on 9 points) after the following results:

Excelsior 1 – 2 Marden (Daisy Rowe, Emily Pearson)

Marden 2 – 1 Cramlington Learning Village (Amy Feetham, Emily Pearson)

Marden 0 – 0 Churchill

Heworth Grange 0 – 3 Marden (Amy Feetham x3)

They then played John Spence in the semi-final of our side of the draw with the winner qualifying for the next stage in the tournament.

They drew 0-0 in an extremely close game before sadly losing on penalties.

The girls were fantastic all day and a credit to the school.

Squad: Libby Hall (GK), Rachel Foreman, Daisy Rowe (C), Emily Pearson, Makenzie Leck, Amy Feetham, Courtney Armstrong, Jasmine Hacioglu.
