Over 600 girls
between the ages of 9 and 11 took part in
the competition which was organised by St
Bartholomews PE Staff Collette Lawson, Jo
Ward and David Needham who said. |
| "Coordinating
a tournament on this scale takes months of
planning. Staff from the Schools,
Referees (some had the day off from work
and travelled from as far as Durham), and
helpers and organisers from St
Bartholomew's Primary School are needed to
make it all work. But it's all worth
it in the end when when 65 schools turn up
the make the event a massive success" |

progress to the knockout phase (last 16). |
