Robert Blake excel at Futsal sport

Monday 3rd June 2013

ROBERT Blake Science College smoked the competition in the South West Futsal Championship – taking them to the national finals.

The RBSC team were already celebrating their victory in the Somerset Championships, when they excelled again at the South West championship in Swindon on May 25.

RBSC's opposition for the day were Bridport Youth FC, Gloucester City Revolution and Purton Youth FC, all football clubs as opposed to school teams.

The team played Purton Youth first, and after a nervous few minutes RBSC settled quickest and opened the scoring through Coner Woolf.

The team went on to win 3-0, with goals from Liam Twigger and Owen Sellick and were again victorious against Bridport, beating them 5-3. The next game saw RBSC lose 3-2, setting up a thrilling close to the tournament as both RBSC and Purton looked like potential winners.

RBSC stepped up and ground out two 1-0 victories against Gloucester City Revolution, Purton lost their next two games.

The RBSC team were already champions going into their last game, where they beat Bridport 6-4.

RBSC will now represent the South West in the national finals on June 30 at the Birmingham Futsal arena.
