The first match between Arion and Priory was an end-to-end match with Arion winning the contest with a strong defence and direct counter attacking play with Edie and Lani getting into good positions to strike the ball low inside the oppositions box for a 2-1 win.

The second match between Priory and Wellesley was a gripping encounter as Priory took their momentum forward and began to overload Wellesley in their final third. Alexina had been on great form with another top finish as she positioned herself well to strike the ball past the inform Wellesley keeper. Huge congratulations to Wellesley for their work rate and determination to get back into the game.

The final match ended in a fiercely contested 0-0 draw between Wellesley and Arion. Wellesley looked to exert their control on the game with relentless work from Rosie, Leggy and Maisie taking control of the midfield whilst once again the Arion team were united in their determination to clear their lines and provide a forward ball for their attacking players including, Evie, Cara, and Edie.

This was a captivating tournament with a well-deserved win for Arion House as they kept their formation and were clinical in front of goal.
