Hampton School welcomed over 400 young footballers for the annual 5-a-side Primary & Prep Football Festival.

Held in the sunshine on the School fields, over 60 teams from 26 local primary and prep schools went head-to-head in an exciting series of 5-a-side football matches. The junior athletes showed impressive sportsmanship alongside some fantastic footballing skills, and there was plenty of cheering from watching parents on the sidelines.

During the festival, Hampton School’s senior footballers assisted with refereeing duties with the emphasis on enjoyment and fair play. Everyone had lots of fun in the sunshine and the ice creams at the end of the festival were a well-deserved treat for all.

Congratulations to all those who took part and demonstrated brilliant footballing skills and team work. The winners of the competition were as follows:

Deputy Head Mr Mark Nicholson praised all the young athletes who took part in the festival:

It’s really uplifting to see so many talented young footballers. The enthusiasm and skill on display made the event a joy to behold. I am immensely grateful to my colleagues for organising the event and to the many Hamptonians who refereed the games.

Well done to all our footballers!
