Congratulations to the boys and girls year 7/8 Dodgeball teams from St Edmund’s Catholic Academy for qualifying for the Black Country School Games! It’s a testament to their skill and hard work.

On the 29th of June, twenty St Edmund’s pupils travelled to the University of Wolverhampton, Walsall campus, where they competed against other qualified teams. The competition showcased an exceptionally high standard, but the St Edmund’s pupils rose to the challenge.

The boys’ team should be proud to have secured the bronze medal, showcasing their talent and dedication to the sport. Similarly, the girls’ team demonstrated their skill and determination, finishing in 4th place after narrowly missing out in the 3rd place play-off.

It’s fantastic to hear that both teams participated with great enthusiasm, perseverance, and sportsmanship. These qualities are invaluable in both sports and life.

Congratulations once again to the boys and girls year 7/8 Dodgeball teams, as well as their coaches and supporters, for their achievements in the Black Country School Games. Well done on representing St Edmund’s Catholic Academy with pride!
