Winning cups again

The St.Clare's football squad, made up of 13 players from 12 different nationalities, came second in the International Schools Football Tournament, held at Tonbridge School.

The team came top of their group, beating Brentwood (UK) 1-0, and drawing 0-0 with the Marist School, Canberra (Australia) and the British School of Paris (France) B team.

In the semi-final, St. Clare's won 4-2 on penalties against the British School of Paris (France) A team, but lost 3-0 in the final to St. Bede's (UK).
