'˜An inspiration to others': Bedgrove Junior School's girls football team jump for joy after their national success
The girls have so far proved invincible, winning each of their nine matches, scoring 37 goals and conceding just one.
They now go forward to the next stage, playing in front of a stadium full of supporters before Oxford City’s next home match.

Headteacher Lorraine Greco said, “These girls are an inspiration to others.
“Coming from a number of backgrounds, some already play football outside of school; others are just desperate to give every sporting opportunity a go.
“Their enthusiasm is infectious, passing on their passion to their peers.
