KELLY LEWIS MEETS OUR U13 STARS

Dateline: Friday January 27  2012

England women's international football star Kelly Lewis came to school to coach our U-13 girls football team. The team have taken another step closer to their dream of reaching a Wembley final by progressing to the Southern Finals of the npower Community Cup.

On February 07 they will travel to Reading to join the other three teams left to fight for a place in the final against the Northern winners, which will take place before the Johnstone's Paint Final at Wembley on March 25th.

The girls, representing Aldershot FC,  have already beaten teams from Bournemouth, Brighton, Brentford, Crawley and Southampton to reach this stage.

Kelly Lewis is famous as the captain of the England women's football team and the girls were very excited to meet her and to gain from her experience. She also signed photos, t-shirts and even trainers during her visit!

There was plenty of media attention for the event, with photographers and reporters from our local newspapers and from npower, who are the sponsors of the U-13s Community Cup.
