Denton Girls Are Champions

It was a great moment for Denton Community College’s sports department as the under 13’s girl's football team won the Tameside football tournament. 

After cruising through the first week of the tournament with a spectacular win over Hyde (6-0) and Fairfield B (5-0) the girls faced a tough second week with 4 games ahead of them. They started off the first game with a tough start with a 1-1 draw against Alder, it was a late equaliser! They then went onto win against Fairfield A, Droylsden and Rayner Stephens. As we didn’t know the other teams results it was a tense few minutes when the results were revealed. Denton Community College being declared winners of the Tameside Tournament!

Teacher Miss Redfern said: “The girls were outstanding throughout all games, shown fantastic sportsmanship and as always represented DCC in a respectable manner. Super proud of all the girls. Well done!”

    A few weeks ago on these pages, after Latics had lost three games in a row, conceding three goals in each game, I wrote them off for the season. Consolidation achieved, but with an unfulfilled objective to entertain and compete. Latics have won four games and drawn two, including last week’s stand-off against leaders Bromley at Hayes Lane, and the season is back in the balance. Tranmere Rovers were there to be hammered at Prenton Park, and Latics obliged. Tequila!

    This was one of the good days. Latics were dominant: craftier, harder-working, more resolute and more ruthless than their opponents, better man-for-man, better as a team.
