We firstly wanted to share with you some hugely pleasing news from before the Easter holiday. Both our Years 7&8 boys football teams won their respective district cup finals on Tuesday 26th March, which were played at Woollam Playing Fields.

The Year 7 team had only won their semi final against Nicholas Breakspear the night before. In pouring rain, the Year 7 match could not have got off to a better start with Harris M putting Finn J through within the first 10 minutes to put KWS in front. Harris then scored a lovely strike from outside the area to make it 2-0 at half time.Two further goals after half time from Josh R and Lucas W cemented KWS’ dominance to make it 4-0. Sandringham scored a late consolation late on but KWS held firm to win the final 4-1. The boys can be immensely proud of their performance demonstrating the KWS values and showing respect to the opposition and referee throughout the game.”

At the same time, our Year 8s produced an excellent performance after conceding a goal within a really difficult first minute of the game. They recovered very well and controlled the game there on, with some excellent fluid passing football. Special mention to Finlay R for grabbing a cup final hat trick with three very well taken goals, including a towering header to put us 2-1 up. All boys played a vital role and well done on an excellent season all round.

Finally, our Year 11 boys football team booked their place in the final of the County Cup Plate final after a convincing 6-1 away win at Broxbourne School. Jordan C continued his fine run of scoring with a brace, meanwhile Lewis N and Jamie D scored goal of the season contenders. We thoroughly look forward to the final, which is due to be played at Colney Heath FC on Thursday 25th April with a 7pm kick off. KWS students and parents are welcome to attend. Please note there is a small entry free.
