World Cup Fever Hits Norwich
World Cup Fever Hits Norwich
On Friday 25th June the spirit of the South Africa 2010 World Cup hit Norwich when the Norwich School Sport Partnership teamed up with FITC to hold a Yr 3/4 football festival.
The festival was themed around the South Africa 2010 Football World Cup.
5 schools attended the event (West Earlham Junior, Wensum Junior, Notre Dame Prep, Bluebell Primary and Colman Junior).
Schools were invited to bring squads of 8 Year 3/4 students including both boys and girls. Each school was allocated a country to represent on the day and were given coloured t-shirts specific to their country to wear.All pupils took part in a mass warm up followed by a football coaching session from FITC coaches.
The teams then took part in a 6 a side tournament. No results were recorded (in line with FA regulations for U8 non-competitive football) with the focus of the day being on participation rather than competition with referees actively coaching players during the games.
Jon Osborne, Partnership Development Manager said;
"It was great to see the power of the World Cup engaging the pupils in this fun football festival."
