Back To NewsThe Abbey does the double regaining the CWSNF KS3 FA Cup and lifting the KS4 trophy for the first time!
View ImagesHosted by St. Philip's this year, the Key Stage 4 tournament was contested by 4 schools, The Abbey, The Park, Dove House and St Philip's. The tournament was in a league format with everyone playing each other once and then play-off games. One of the three Abbey teams, Abbey Athletic beat a team from The Park 4-0 in the final - the first time The Abbey have won the CWSNF KS4 football tournament. A great achievement for all.
The following week it was KS3’s turn to participate in the annual tournament which takes place at The Abbey. Again, we had 3 teams entered.
In a great day which showed some outstanding football, great sportsmanship and respect for each other, as well as a very competitive tournament, 7 teams battled it out for the Children with Special Needs Foundation's Ian Wooldridge Memorial FA cup replica. Every team played each other in 6 minute, 6-a-side games. The top 4 teams then went through to a semi-final, and the winners played each other in a final.
Following a goalless draw in the final against St. Philip's, Abbey Athletic won the penalty shootout to regain the cup.
