CARSHALTON ATHLETIC FOOTBALL ACADEMY
 
 
 
Carshalton Athletic Football Club recently awarded Glenthorne the title of 'School of the Week’ this week. To celebrate this achievement they gave free tickets to all students to thier recent game against Canvey Island. 
 
During half time at the game , the Year 7 boys football team were invited to take part in a crossbar challenge, where if they hit the bar from outside of the penalty area they could receive £10. Please 
 
The Carshalton Athletic Academy has really started to come into its own; the boys are unbeaten in 2010 and have only lost once in the last 5 matches. The real turning point can be seen by the 4-1 win against Woking which came after losing 3-0 to the same team earlier in the season. The league is a U19 league and all of the Carshalton team are in Year 12 so have 2 more years in which they can compete. Ian Hazel and Barry Wilde the two coaches have been really impressed with the attitude and effort the boys have put in after a difficult start in a very competitive league. 
 
 
 
Recent results: 
Boreham Wood 3-0 ; Wealdstone 1-1 ; Woking 4-1 ; AFC Wimbledon 0-0 ; St Albans 3-0 ; Watford 2-1 
 
The school and Carshalton Athletic are already looking ahead to next year and trials were hosted at Tolworth Playing Fields on Monday 15th and Tuesday 16th February.
