Partnership Cup Winners!!

The boys and girls from P5, 6 & 7 took part in the annual partnership cup football competition in St. Patrick's High School. The boys and girls games are played simultaneously and the final score of each game are put together to calculate an overall score for the school - both teams are dependent on each other!! Our boys and girls played fantastically well and reached the final. At full time the combined score of both teams meant that it was a draw and we entered into extra time. At the end of extra time nothing could separate the teams and we entered into the dreaded penalty shoot out!! Three brave girls and three brave boys stood up to take their spot kick for the school. After six excellently executed penalties the boys and girls of Darkley Primary School were crowned champions!! The boys captain (Conor O'Hagan) and girls captain (Laura Callaghan) came forward to accept the trophy on behalf of the school. This is the first time Darkley Primary School has won the competition; well done! We are all very proud of you all!!
