Monday 23rd January -Korfball Tournament

Cheam Fields attended a Korfball tournament on Monday 23rd February hosted by the Nomads club. The teams played against 4 other LEO schools, Cheam Common, Manor Park, Brookfield and Cheam Park Farm. With only a couple of training sessions both teams showed amazing team work and resilience.


After not having the best start to the matches, both teams were able to build on their losses and improved throughout the tournament. Some great passing and team plays were shown and some excellent shooting from all. We are so proud of both teams, and you all played brilliantly.

Year 3 team - Martha, Nylah, Miley, Leo , Hugo and Hunter.

Year 4 team - Eve, Ava, Phoebe, Taylor, Jamie, Albert and Ozzy
