Wednesday 30th April 2025 – What a scorcher for our termly PSSP Inclusion Football event. 5 teams attended to compete in our friendly tournament aimed at promoting teamwork, respect and having lots of fun. Represented today were Cann Bridge, Courtlands, Pennycross, Montpelier and Keyham Barton – all of the children arrived excited and a little nervous but keen to get going. After a brief welcome, they were soon off to their pitches ready to play. I am incredibly fortunate at these events to have the outstanding support from the Sports Leaders at Stoke Damerel Secondary School – they referee and score all of the games but also support the children/teams and are absolutely brilliant at it! This event is a round-robin  so every school gets to play all of the others. 5 points are awarded for a win, 3 points for a draw and 1 point for a loss. Once all of the games are played, the scores are collated and we present the children with their certificates on the main pitch. Congratulations to Montpelier who were our overall winners today. Well done to everyone who took part, I really hope you enjoyed it as much as I did and would be keen to come back again. Check out the PSSP website for more upcoming Inclusion events.
