Tenbury vs York 2016

Well done to the pupils who played against Manor School, York on the weekend.

The boy’s football game was an entertaining fixture. Tenbury took a 3-1 lead with goals from Adam Staples (x2) and Ben Everall . Manor eventually levelled with 8 minutes to go and looked like they’d go on to score the winning goal. However, Tenbury won a corner with minutes on the clock and a clever back heel flick from Ellis Wear who managed to direct the ball into the net. Tenbury won 4-3.

The girls had two matches, both of mixed teams. The one team won 17 and a half to 8, and the other team narrowly missed out by 2 rounders. The girls played amazingly and a special mention to Lola Wear who stepped in last minute and scored 3 rounders.

National Schools' Equestrian Association Show Jumping

Well done to Poppy Spriggs, Matilda Wall and Izzy Griffiths.

Last Saturday (17th June) , Poppy Spriggs made her debut outing for THOA at the NSEA show jumping at Kings, Bromyard.

Poppy had a great day, coming 6th in the 60cm class and qualifying for the winter grass roots championships.

Poppy rode beautifully in the 70cm but had an unlucky fence down, meaning she ended on 4 faults.
On Sunday (18th June), Matilda Wall rode lovely clear rounds in the 75cm class and  she came 5th, qualifying for the Championship plate at Keysoe.

Matilda also went on to come 2nd in the 85cm class and qualified for the Addington championship.

Izzy Griffiths rode a beautiful clear round in the 95cm and just missed the ribbons coming 7th. Unfortunately, a few poles rolled in the 1m 5 class.

They all had a great but busy weekend. Thank you to Claire Wall for her organisation and support for the team.

Manor Academy visit THOA

After our York tour back in March it was our turn to host the Manor Academy for the weekend. 

The last game ended 3-2 to York so it was our chance to level the result.

The game was fairly even throughout with both teams creating some decent chances but it was York who took the lead when a cross into the box was not dealt with.

After half time THOA began to play some neat football and Adam Staples fired a cross into the box for Harrison Davies to control, setting up Alex Cridland who curled the ball into the top left half corner to level the score.

The game was looking like it was going to finish a draw but in the last few seconds Luke Bufton played a delightful through ball into the path of Matty O’Hagan who slipped it under the oncoming keeper to take the lead and the victory.

Well done to every single player who played in the game. A great game to watch!
