Springholm Primary pupils compete in Scottish Schools Lacrosse finals
15.05.2024 - 08:53 / dailyrecord.co.uk
A group of 12 Springholm Primary pupils recently headed to Balfron High School near Stirling to compete in the Scottish Schools Lacrosse finals.
They had qualified through the regional tournament by finishing as first under-11 team and third over-11 team.
After an early start, they arrived in a very sunny Balfron ready for the day.
Both teams played really well and came second in their respective groups and went on to play the very experienced teams from Strathblane Primary in the semi-finals.
They then went on to play the bronze medal matches where they fought hard and finished in fourth place against Killearn (overs) and Drymen (unders).
Throughout the day they were enthusiastic, and their skill level and confidence increased with each match they played, which was great to see. Both teams finished as the top Dumfries and Galloway sides.
Kyle said: “It was great to play against different teams and the weather was fab!”
Eva added: “Playing against tougher and rougher opponents was good as we learned a lot.”
The school would like to thank Threave Rovers for the use of their minibus and to the fantastic driver Davie for giving up his time to ensure that the children were able to take full advantage of this brilliant opportunity.
Thanks also go to parents who raised funds for the trip and to Tesco for donating some much appreciated snacks and water.
This was the first year some of the pupils have played lacrosse so qualifying for the finals was a fantastic achievement.
Springholm Primary is very proud of all of them and their super achievements.
