U19 Somerset FA County Cup Success

Clevedon 6^th Form scored a great opening round victory over the reigning Somerset FA County Cup Champions – West Somerset College. Sporting its own Football Academy West Somerset College turned up confident that they would continue their previous excellent form and moved into a 3 – 0 lead within the first half. However, two successful penalties  from David Clark and further goals from  Frasier Linnet and James Capon, in response to one further goal from West Somerset College, ensured that Clevedon reached full time at 4-4.

Extra time was played out with no further goals scored and the match nervously reached penalties. Clevedon’s goal keeper, James Williams, showed inspired form to save two goals allowing Clevedon to  move through to a second round tie with Beechen Cliff School, Bath, 4-1 on penalties. Clevedon’s four successful penalty takers were David Clark (completing his penalty hat tricks), Frasier Linnet, Tom Clark and Luca Murray.

 Well done to the full team who showed great resilience, determination and team work to come back from 3-0 down and win through against such esteemed opposition.

Woodspring Debating - more success!

Following the success of Rory  and Jack, who won the first round of the Woodspring Debating Competition two weeks ago, we had further success last night (3rd November) at Nailsea School with David and Billy, also from Clevedon's Sixth Form, who successfully made it through to the final, which will be held Churchill School in January.

The boys spoke eloquently and convincingly on The motion: This house believes that social media is making society meaner.

Next up are Millie and Hannah, who will be representing Clevedon at Gordano in two weeks.


Good luck!
