On Tuesday, 20th May, the Year 7 boys' football team had an unforgettable experience as they played a friendly match at QPR's Loftus Road Stadium. The fixture, arranged as a reward for their outstanding season in the QPR Schools League, saw them face off against KAA’s Year 8 team.
From a pre-match team talk in the dressing rooms to walking out of the tunnel onto the pitch, the boys were given a taste of what it’s like to be a professional footballer. Despite a narrow 1–0 defeat, they put in a spirited and competitive performance against a side that finished 2nd in the league—one year above their age group.
The team now look ahead to their final fixture of the season: the QPR League Championship Final against Fulham Boys on Sunday, 22nd June, where they’ll have the chance to bring home the QPR League Trophy!
