CAUSEWAY 0 ETC 6
SCORERS: SHANTELLE OMAR AND ERI SALISBURY
A solid performance from the year 9 team. On the attack we showed a lot of movement off the ball, and some defence splitting passes came from Lola Olusanya (GD) that often found Shantelle Omar (GA) or Eri Salisbury (GS). A couple of times Causeway did manage to find a way through to the shooting D, but Tash Guthrie (GK) used her height well to cause an off target shot. Lauren Annets had an impressive debut as WD, Emily Gillam (WA) always made herself available as a passing option, and April Marshall (C) worked hard to link play between the defenders and attackers. Overall a very strong and confident looking performance.MVP1: LOLA OLUSANYA “Great interceptions, work rate high as always, intelligent passing”MVP2: SHANTELLE OMAR “Fast, agile, clever movements off the ball”

CAUSEWAY 4 ETC 2
SCORER: VIKKI TRIGWELL
A better performance from the year 8s, all players worked hard in building attacking chances, and battled well to keep the score line down. I would say it was an equally contested game, and a draw would have been a fair result. However Causeway had greater success when shooting. Strong performances again came from Dani Guthrie and Elysia Cosma.
MVP: DANI GUTHRIE- “Kept Causeways score line down, and was quick to take backline restarts”.

ETC 1 CAVENDISH 16
A tough game for the girls, Cavendish had 4 very experienced netballers that dictated the game from the start. We worked hard, but Cavendish were first to everything. A few glimmers of good play came from ETC on the attack, but Cavendish were quick to recover and regain possession.
MVP: ELYSIA COSMA- “Competed well with Cavendish, and showed Sharp passing throughout”.

NETBALLETC 1 CAVEDISH 1
SCORER: YASMINE SCOTT
Finally a breakthrough for the year 7 girls, we started strong and the training that the girls have been doing each week has clearly started to pay off. We looked the sharper team and had moments of brilliance when we passed and moved. Some exceptional performances came from Holly Marshall, Kayla McCarthy, Abbie Sanders, and Yasmine Scott who are starting to show great potential for future. ETC had all the possession in the first half, all players showed good movement off the ball and an understanding in the game. A good passing move that started with Abbie at the back came to Kayla who passed from defence out wide to Eve Drummond, who was playing WA. Eve then found Hollie Marshall who then switched the play to Hollie Carter. Scott came deep to collect the ball from Carter, with Rhianna Hagger in support. Hagger played a nice 1 2 with Scott who then had a shot and scored! It was half time and ETC were in the lead!The second half came and with good performances from replacements Mel Kelly and Charlotte Freeman, ETC still had all possession but could not seem to score. Cavendish then found an opening on the counter attack and managed to equalise with minutes to go. Fantastic performance by all involved!!
MVP- HOLLY MARSHALL “she supported well during both defending and attacking phases of play. A good all round performance”.

ETC 2 CAVENDISH 2
BAXTER-SMITH 1, ELLINGSWORTH 1.
On Wednesday 22nd November ETC’s year 9 B team took on Cavendish school. They had a late kick off as there was some confusion with the pitches. Despite this, Cavendish were on form and went ahead with two early goals within the first 15 minutes. ETC replied five minutes before the break when Beau Baxter-Smith came up with a spectacular volley. This really gave the ETC team hope for the second half. ETC started the half strongly but ten minutes passed with no further goals. This soon changed when Harry Ellingsworth whipped in a vicious shot that curled into the top corner. A tense final 5 minutes ended with a 2 – 2 draw, a great game and a fair result.
MOM: Stuart ‘the cat’ Cornford (GK) – “vital point blank stops kept ETC in it”.

HAILSHAM 0 ETC 3
Shantelle Omar 2, Emily Gillam 1
ETC travelled to Hailsham for their 4th game of the season with 9 players. With 4 key players out and having not enough to field a starting 11, the odds were not on our side. The first 10 minutes of the half saw the ETC girls completely take charge of the game; Hailsham looked more like the team that only had 10 players on the pitch. Experienced players really stepped up to the mark and showed Great Spirit in setting the standard for the game.We came close to taking the lead on several occasions with shots coming from Shantelle Omar, Lola Olusanya, and Emily Gillam. Accurate and pacey passing from Rachel Gunn and Shantelle finally found Lola, who again took the ball down the right wing; crossed a deadly ball into the box which Hailsham defence found hard to clear; which resulted in Shantelle controlling and hitting the ball into the bottom right hand corner to make it 1-0 ETC!!Now filled with even more confidence, we started to really press Hailsham. Charleigh Crotty pushing up from defence to create more chances for us, Jasmine Izzard in defence looking like she was what England missed in the 3-2 defeat to Croatia, Shantelle Omar actually defending, Rachel Gunn spraying the ball left and right from the centre of midfield, Emily and Lola taking defenders on down the wings, Bekki French getting a foot in when needed, Vicky Davies battling hard up front, and Sophie Boast getting her body behind the ball and playing like n experienced keeper.Again ETC broke down the right with Lola crossing for Emily Gillam to make a late run to the far post for a tap in finish.Just before half time ETC broke again with a long ball from defence, Rachel Gunn got on the end of it and drove forward to the goal, a late challenge then flew in from Hailsham catching Gunns foot taking her out for the rest of the game. A big blow for ETC as Gunn had a superb first half, and we were now down to 8 players with another half to go.The second half saw ETC completely dominating the game, some fantastic passing led to a shot that hit the crossbar from Lola. In the closing stages of the game, a good passing move that again started in defence found Shantelle; who converted to make it 3-0. A truly magnificent performance from the girls, if only there were more people to witness the event.
MOM- JASMIN IZZARD “a startling performance!! A rock at the back of our 3 man defence”.

Wednesday 21st November: YEAR 9 BASKETBALL NATIONALS
ETC 36 HOLY TRINITY 46
Our second Nationals game was very disappointing. The Holy Trinity team were not as strong as Angmering, but we performed well below par. From the outset we looked nervous, and turned the ball over many times in the 1st quarter. We never came close until the 4th quarter, when Trinity ran their bench and we reduced the deficit to 6 points. As in our 1st game we missed too many open lay ups, and we were made to pay.Trinity were a better side then us on the day, and this means qualification is impossible for us. We’ve got 2 games next week to try and restore some pride.
MVP- Not awarded.

Final comment on this week's posts by Miss A.
That’s the entire round up for this week, a little less to report about due to cancelled games. However I will take this opportunity to remind those students that play for school teams, a write up of your team/individual performance will only feature in the newsletter if pupils’ behaviour during the fixture is a good example of how we want our school to be represented. If it is below that expectation a report will not feature.
If anyone is interested in writing match reports in for the newsletter, please see Miss A.

Friday 16th November: YEAR 11b BOYS FOOTBALL TOURNAMENT
As the players in Year 11 have attended training sessions over the previous few weeks it was decided to take two teams to the district tournament to enable more players to be involved.
Both sides played attractive "Champagne" football and not only provided entertainment for the massed crowds but also produced goals and impressive results. Each team played 2 matches and won both with some impressive team play and clinical finishing especially from Nathan Birch and Ryan Weston.
In the third matches our First team lost their way a little and despite creating many chances were unable to put the ball in the net and allowed Hailsham to steal the win. Meanwhile our second team, yet again, played with style and control and cruised to another 1-0 victory.
Our final match was an ETC First versus ETC Second team battle. Our second team only needed a draw to win the tournament; a win for our first team would crown them as Champs. What a great position to be in, both teams had showed fantastic team spirit and a full understanding of the tactics needed to win matches.
The game was played in a sporting manner with no quarter given. The First team dominated much of the game and built up a 2 goal lead which could have been an even greater lead if not for some solid keeping from Jack "the Cat" Salt. The second team never gave up and after a mazy run from Michael Modesto pulled a goal back. You could smell the tension; well I think it was tension! As the clock ran down, with less than a minute left of the match Peter Sadunajski hit a long shot which hit the post and flew into the back of the old onion bag.
The players and several hundred spectators went wild. The second team had drawn the game but won the tournament with our first team coming in runner up spot.
The "We are the Champions" celebrations on the return journey would have made Freddie Mercury proud.
Well done both teams, great performances, spectacular results and marvellous team work.
Bring on the next match.

Wednesday 14th November: YEAR 9B FOOTBALL TOURNAMENT
Last Wednesday two of our yr 9 B-teams went to Hailsham for a 6-a-side tournament. Both teams put in a valiant effort and won themselves some points with a couple of draws, but it all come down to the last game. Mr.Booth versus Mr.Stewart.
Both their teams battled hard to create chances; a great save was made by the keeper Jake Taylor only for Harry Ellingsworth to quickly follow up for a tap in. This sealed the match for Mr. Booth’s team, which meant they finished an overall third.
A special mention goes to Chris Mockford and Wei Lin for their great defending.

Two very confident teams the girls battled against. Both demonstrating quick passing, and very rarely missing a shot when given the chance. ETC need to start thinking ahead in the game, to make pass selection and moving into the right spaces easier.

ETC B-5 WILLINGDON B-4
BURCH 2, WESTON 1, GOWER 1, WEST 1.
Willingdon started the game well; they created a lot of chances in the 1st 20 minutes which enabled them to score 2 goals, putting ETC on the back foot. ETC came back fighting back with great strikes from Nathan Burch and Ryan Weston, which made it 2 all. By this point ETC were dominating all over the pitch, a long ball from midfield beat the Willingdon defence; which allowed Burch to run through for a 1 on 1 with the keeper that he easily put away to make it 3-2 ETC. A lapse in concentration from ETC saw Willingdon take the opportunity to equalise, making it 3 all. Ryan Weston broke through to strike on goal, to make it 4-3 to ETC. Willingdon came back to equalise within 5 minutes making the score 4 all. This was now turning into a real battle for both teams, when out of nowhere in the closing minutes of the game, Luke West dribbled the ball down the right wing. Saw the keeper off his line and took a fantastic early shot with the outside of his boot, that curled in to land in the bottom left hand corner of the goal. Final score ETC 5, Willingdon 4.
MOM- RYAN WESTON “had 3 great assists and scored a goal”.

Wednesday 7th November: GIRLS FOOTBALL
Shantelle Omar 1, Lola Olusanya 1, Emily Gillam 1.
A poor start from ETC saw Bishop Bell quickly taking the lead in the opening minutes of this title clash game. ETC were 1-0 down and still Bishop Bell looked the more up for it team. A few wrong decisions saw Bishop Bell through on goal again to make it 2-0 20 minutes into the game. The last minutes of the half saw a few glimmers of light for ETC coming from Shantelle, Lola and Hannah Blundells attacking play down the wings, a cross from Blundell found Shantelle; whos early shot beat the keeper to find the bottom left hand corner of the net. Half time score 2-1 to Bishop Bell! The second half saw a different ETC out on the pitch, every single player on the team worked and battled hard to win the ball to get it in the danger area for us. Jasmine Izzard now started to command the defence making us look strong and confident, allowing Charleigh Crotty to push into midfield helping with attacks.At this point ETC had now settled well into the game, Bishop Bell struggled to get the ball out of their own half for the 1st 20 minutes, finally a break through came from Lola squeezing the ball past 3 or 4 defenders to make it 2 all. 10 minutes now left of the game, ETC have all the possession, and Bekki French, Jasmine Izzard and Rachel Gunn are looking in control at the back. Our midfield worked hard with crosses and shots coming from Lauren Hughes, Hannah Blundell, Emily Gillam, Lola Olusanya, Immy Robinson and Shantelle Omar. Unfortunately for us the Keeper was moving well and saving anything that came towards her. Finally pressure paid off, and again a crossed ball saw Emily Gillam scoring her debut goal for ETC, making the score 3-2. All ETC had to do now was keep hold of the ball for the dying minutes of the game, but with light fading it made it hard for both teams to stay focused. Bishop Bell now had nothing to lose and pushed for the equalising goal, they managed to break through 2 or 3 times but Sophie Boast claimed the ball well from goal. A minute to go saw Shantelle Omar get onto the end of Boasts goal kick, running the ball towards the corner and keeping hold of it until the whistle. Final score 3-2 ETC, a very entertaining game.

C.MITCHELL-6, M.MULHERN-3, J.WALLIS-3, B.OLUSANYA-2.
Our year 9 team has been unbeaten in Eastbourne for the past two years. We have regularly beaten local schools by 50 points plus. So BBO entered the year 9 boys into the hardest competition in England, ‘The Nationals’.
We are in a group of 6, and the top 2 teams will qualify to the last 16.On Thursday, we travelled to Angmering Sports College, which has an excellent reputation for producing high quality teams and athletes.From the outset we knew that we were up against a very skilful and talented Angmering team.
It later was revealed that 2 of their players are in the England under 14 squad, and Francis is in the starting 5 for England!!I am so proud of all 10 of our players. They were committed, never gave up and scored 59 points.
Angmering had never given up more then 40 points in a game.Joe Marodza was the best point guard on show and stole the ball on numerous occasions.Ty Berry and Nathan Carr coped admirably whilst guarding Francis, and learnt a lot from the game.
Billy Alsop was MVP. Outstanding at both ends of the court, he performed superbly and top scored with 15 points.Matt Mulhern impressed on debut, James Sib worked the screen well. Jake Wallis played through injury and Bob, Cain and Michael picked up valuable rebounds and experience.BBO believes we have played one of the strongest teams in England who will reach the final 4.
Francis scored 39 points and had a superb all round game, he will go far in Basketball.Our boys stayed within 33 points and this has been a good grounding for our 4 games before Christmas. If we win our 4 remaining games then we will qualify in 2nd place. Again congratulations to the team, very proud even though it was loss.
I hope our players join local teams this season.
