New school’s first sporting success – infield hockey
PUPILS from Littlehampton’s new River Beach Primary School are celebrating their first-ever sports tournament success.
Playing as “Botswana”, they won all five matches against “Spain” A and B teams, “Sweden”, “Italy” and “USA”, scoring 10 goals and conceding not a single goal in any of their matches.
The years five and six tournament, for schools from the Littlehampton and Arundel area, was co-ordinated by sports staff at The Littlehampton Academy, the venue for the event.
One of the jubilant River Beach players, Luke, said: “I was really really happy because we didn’t lose a game and also Miss Hall was amazing at coaching us to an outstanding victory.”
