On Tuesday 3^rd November, the girls football team walked down to the Idverde Training Ground (POSH’s training pitches) to take part in the city-wide qualifier for the Premier League U11’s Cup. A competition which sees lots of schools compete with some brilliant players from other schools.

The competition was split into two large groups with each group having 9 teams in. The girls had to qualify in the top two to go through to the semi-finals. The girls played 8 group matches, winning all 8! That was impressive. They then went onto to win the semi-final 1-0 and enter the final. The girls played Elton in the final and won 1-0 in a great game of football.

The girls are the first team at Wistow to have won this competition and should be immensely proud of themselves. In March the girls will now represent Peterborough United and play against teams like Watford, Tottenham Hotspurs, MK Dons, Colchester and many more. If they win the southern finals, they then get to play at Wembley during the play-off final against the winners from the North!
