In the semi-final, the team narrowly lost 2-1 to Park Road Sale B in a hard-fought match, which saw some excellent football from both sides.
The third-place playoff saw Park Road take on Worthington once more, with the game ending in a 0-0 draw. With no penalties played, both teams agreed to share 3rd place—a fair outcome for two very evenly matched sides.

Another tough draw followed against Brooklands A, with the match again going to a tie-break. This time, Park Road narrowly missed out 17-18, but showed superb spirit and sportsmanship throughout.
Into the semi-finals, the team faced a strong Tyntesfield side and, despite their best efforts, were defeated 1-3. In the third-place playoff, Park Road had a rematch with Brooklands A. After another close 2-2 draw, the tie-break again just slipped away from them 20-22.
Despite missing out on a medal position, finishing 4th out of 8 was a fantastic achievement in tough weather conditions. Well done to all the children who represented the school with pride and perseverance!
