U18 West Berkshire Football League
The girls were evenly matched against Kennet School in the final of the U18 West Berkshire Girls’ Football League, with great defending from both sides. 
Poppy made some fantastic saves and was always a safe pair of hands, giving the team confidence to push up the pitch.
It was 0-0 at half time with all to play for St Bart’s had fresh legs and made regular subs to keep the pace and pressure up. This paid off, with Erin scoring early in the second half, giving the team a boost. St Bart’s kept up the relentless shots on goal and Mya secured a second goal to seal the win. A great team performance and another trophy for the cabinet.
