Girls get Wolves booster for final
Saturday 19th April 2008, 11:49AM BST.
Bridgnorth Endowed School’s all-conquering under-16 girls team are to get some expert coaching ahead of their RAF Schools Cup Final – with a training session at Wolves.
The girls will take on Suffolk-based Kirkley Community High School in the national final at the City of Manchester Stadium on Monday, April 28.
Their preparations will get a boost from the trip on Thursday to see Wolves’ first team in training.
The girls will go to the Championship club’s training base in Compton and may get the chance to meet some of the Wolves players.
And they will then head over to the club’s indoor training dome for some expert tuition before the day is completed with a tour of the Molineux stadium.
Meanwhile, Thomas Telford’s under-15 girls are also through to the national final after a fine 6-1 victory over Dukeries College from Nottingham.
Goals from Nicola Hall (2), Abbie Pope (2), Louise Pritchard and Aofie Kelly were enough to seal Thomas Telford’s final berth.
They now await the outcome of the other semi-final between Cardinal Newman School (Luton) and Winston Churchill School (Woking) to discover their opponents.
School spokesman Iain Sweeney said: “The final score does not indicate the closeness of the game.
“Thomas Telford took the chances that came their way and resolute defending denied the Dukeries’ girls.”
