The U14 girl’s football team<br />

seas<strong>on</strong>’s progress which <strong>the</strong>y<br />

This year’s seas<strong>on</strong> has got off<br />
<strong>to</strong> a flying start. We have <strong>on</strong>ly<br />
competed in two races so far<br />
<strong>this</strong> year but already many of our<br />
runners have earned <strong>the</strong>mselves<br />
district place which allows <strong>the</strong>m<br />
<strong>to</strong> take part in races against <strong>the</strong><br />
<strong>to</strong>p runners around <strong>the</strong> Solihull<br />
area and fur<strong>the</strong>r afield.<br />
Kindly supported by<br />

<strong>the</strong>mselves district places after<br />

<strong>Academy</strong> and <strong>on</strong><br />
<strong>the</strong> Ast<strong>on</strong> Villa pitch.<br />
It was a really good<br />
day playing <strong>on</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
Ast<strong>on</strong> Villa pitch<br />
and <strong>the</strong> chance of a<br />
lifetime. We played<br />
really well and it<br />
was an experience<br />
that n<strong>on</strong>e of us will<br />
forget.<br />
coming in 23rd. They<br />
look like <strong>the</strong>y could win <strong>the</strong><br />
Champi<strong>on</strong>ships in <strong>the</strong> spring!<br />
Our new year 7s also did<br />
extremely well with Karys<br />
Amory coming in 3rd and Jamie<br />
Sinnott coming in 47th which is<br />
phenomenal as <strong>the</strong>y both have<br />
<strong>on</strong>ly just started at <strong>the</strong> <strong>CTC</strong> in<br />
September. Jade Sinnott also<br />
came 18th and Hannah-Mai<br />
Amory came 4th both earning a<br />
place in <strong>the</strong> district races.<br />

My name is Matt Selby and I<br />
am currently in Yr 11. I play ice<br />
hockey for Coventry Blaze U16’s<br />
team. I have been playing ice<br />
hockey for around 4 years and<br />
have gradually progressed from<br />
knowing nothing at all about<br />
hockey <strong>to</strong> recently becoming<br />
Captain for <strong>the</strong> England U16’s<br />
team. To get <strong>to</strong> <strong>this</strong> point I have<br />
had <strong>to</strong> train extremely hard.<br />
This training has included many<br />
late nights and lots of travelling<br />
around both nati<strong>on</strong>ally and<br />
internati<strong>on</strong>ally. In May <strong>the</strong> EIHA<br />
hold a <strong>to</strong>urnament over 3 days<br />
in Hull and selecti<strong>on</strong>s are made<br />
for England trials. This year I was<br />
awarded with an All Stars Shirt<br />
Year 10 student Elizabeth Bibb<br />
and was <strong>on</strong> <strong>the</strong> team of <strong>the</strong> best<br />
of <strong>the</strong> entire <strong>to</strong>urnament for my<br />
age group. Ano<strong>the</strong>r achievement<br />
was making <strong>the</strong> England U16’s<br />
team a year early which is very<br />
unusual and also being made<br />
Assistant Captain. I am thrilled <strong>to</strong><br />
have been selected for Captain<br />
for <strong>the</strong> squad <strong>this</strong> year and we<br />
will be going off <strong>to</strong> a <strong>to</strong>urnament<br />
in Holland with o<strong>the</strong>r Nati<strong>on</strong>al<br />
Teams.<br />
If any<strong>on</strong>e would be able <strong>to</strong><br />
