Tag Rugby tournament 2008

On the 19th of November 2008, Fairlop Primary entered the Tag Rugby tournament at Ilford RFC (Rugby Football club). It was a tough, long and cold day, but our team managed to come 2nd out of 7. In our team we had 13 brave children to step up to the challenge but only half of us knew the rules! Our first challenge was against Redbridge Primary school, lucky for us we won a stunning 3 -1 with Kian Flanegan, Rosie Emerson, George Turner who opened up the scoring in the first match. In the second match we played against, Uphall Primary and won. Unfortunately our team only won second place but they are still happy with their effort. Although they lost against Mossford We all hope they do well in the future.

Year 5 and 6 Girls Football v St Anthony's


On the 11 th of March 2008 Fairlop Primary school played against St Anthonys. Just before the match started we all stretched our muscles to make sure our legs didn't hurt before the match. It was a windy day but we were still able to play! Our coach was Mrs Dawson.
As the match started we all tried our hardest to score. Within the first 10 minutes Fairlop had already scored by Chantel who had smashed the ball in the back of the net. Despite our other fantastic goals, we were just pipped at the post with a final goal from St Anthony's. The end result was 5 - 4.

Fairlop Football update- League & Cup Matches

Fairlop vs Oakdale

This was our first match at home. We felt it went very well despite one of key players RG being out of action. It was a very close game but fortunately SS scored from the half way line at extra time, making us 1 up. Then Oakdale equalised and we carried ourself into penalties, when SA scored us the winning goal.

It was a tough match but worth the effort as we won!


Fairlop vs Churchfields

This was the hardest team in our league to play. They are a very good side, and we are a bit ashamed to admit they battered us 6-0!! We tried our hardest but the best side won!


Fairlop vs South Park

This was a King Cup game - Round 2. They had beat their last team 12-0, which told us they were a very good side. In the first half, they scored 4 goals, and we scored 2 - LM and AR helping us out.

In the second half, we equalised making it a very close and exciting end to the match. In the end though they scored in the final stages, making it 5-4 to South Park.

Fairlop vs Aldersbrook

Another league match - away - which we had to win! Unfortunately, they went 1 up in the early stages, but LB scored for Fairlop. They went 2-1 up, leaving us a bit disappointed but we tried our best and fought back to win 3-2, JS and TT our scorers. Well done us!
