Summer started early for Capital School this year with the annual RALSA Football Tournament. This 6- a- side International football tournament saw students from Capital School competing against 5 other international language schools from Bournemouth.
The event took place at the Littledown Sports Centre and kicked off at 1.30pm, with each game lasting 10 minutes.
Capital School of English had 15 students take part in the tournament operating as a squad rotating places throughout the afternoon to ensure everyone had a chance to shine and enjoy a few games of football.
Capital started off well, with a 1-0 victory against United World 2, followed by a 0-0 draw with Anglo Continental. Their success continued with a 2-0 victory against BEET to be followed by a 0-0 draw against Kings School and a 0-0 draw against MLS.
At the end of the league, Capital came out on top of the table and faced BEET in the final and what a great final it was!!
After 10 minutes of constant shooting at the goal but failing to score, (with the crowds going crazy!!), the winner was decided by an exciting penalty shoot out with Capitals’ Colombian Felipe Pinzon feeling the pressure in goal.
Both Capital and BEET scored their first two goals, and thanks to Felipe saving BEETs’ last attempt, Capital were crowned the RALSA 2011 Football Champions and lifted the cup with pride!!
A great day and many thanks to the supporters who came down to cheer the boys on!
This is just an example of the type of activity that are being organized for international students coming to Bournemouth to learn English at Capital School.
