Bart’s Footballers in Barcelona

Congratulations to Lucia (7D3), Amy (7D2) and Eva (9E2) who play for Swindon Town FC Girls Centre of Excellence and were recently taken to Football Cup Barcelona. This is an international youth football tournament for girls, held in Salou and Cambrils, south of Barcelona.

Lucia captained Swindon and got nominated “club ambassador” for the quality of her football in addition to her behaviour and leadership.

Swindon got to the final after a run of all wins, 20 goals scored and 0 conceded, but unfortunately lost on penalties after a 0-0 full time score to FC Evolution, also from England. They got the 2nd place trophy to celebrate and they were all happy and singing nonetheless! Well done girls!
