Chilcote Sport Tournament Review

2013-2014 has been the most successful sporting year ever for Chilcote School. In addition to the boys football, girls football, and girls netball teams that the school run, we get the chance to participate in a range of sports through our partnership with Baverstock. In total we have entered 13 different sports tournaments throughout the year. Approximately 60 different children have represented the school in these tournaments. Furthermore, every child in years 1, 2 and 4 has participated in festivals (multi-skills, multi-skills, and cricket respectively). Chilcote have not finished lower than third in any of these tournaments.

We have won a total of 6 tournaments: year 3 and 4 football B team competition; year 5 and 6 mixed hockey tournament; year 5 and 6 mixed sportshall athletics; year 5 and 6 mixed swimming gala; year 5 and 6 mixed tag-rugby; year 5 and 6 quadkids athletics. In addition to winning these tournaments Chilcote also represented the Baverstock partnership in the Winter games festival at Hockey and Sportshall athletics. This meant that the children participated against the winners from all of the partnerships across Birmingham. The hockey team managed to finish 3rd in Birmingham, which was a tremendous achievement. The sportshall athletics squad finished a respectable 6th in the finals. Unfortunately, due to the Redridge residential the Tag-rugby winners, and the quadkids athletics winners did not get to represent the partnership at the Birmingham Summer games despite winning the tournament and qualifying.

Chilcote have finished as runners up in 4 tournaments: year 5 and 6 mixed basketball; year 4 mixed tennis; year 4 mixed tri-golf; year 5 and 6 mixed rounders. Unfortunately, being runners up meant we didn’t qualify to represent the partnership in these sports.
In addition, the teams finished third in 3 tournaments: year 4 mixed football; year 5 cricket; year 5 and 6 mixed netball. In most tournaments third meant that the team finished about in the middle of the number of teams that entered.


Finally, the year 6 football team also had a very successful year. They got to the semi-finals of the HMS cup/shield. They also finished third in the premier league of the South Birmingham football leagues, which means they finished an excellent 3rd out of 18 schools.
