Past and Present
Represent England
Former student Daniel Sturridge has helped England qualify for next year’s World Cup in Brazil after being heavily involved in the qualification campaign scoring 2 goals including coolly slotting home an injury time penalty in England’s comfortable 4-1 win against Montenegro last Friday. I am sure he is hoping to continue his fantastic start to the season as well as remaining fit so he can do his upmost to book his ticket on the flight to Rio! Everybody at CHS wishes him all the best for the rest of the season.
Year 9 student Hollie Massey has yet again been selected for the national side, in a select squad of 24, after impressing for her club, Manchester United. She will attend a 2 week training camp at St. George’s Park before taking on Wales. St George’s Park is fast becoming her second home! As a reward for the call-up she got to meet Manchester United defender Nemanja Vidic where she received tips about playing football at the highest level, something that Massey is very capable of achieving. Hollie admitted she felt inspired to emulate the Old Trafford hero. “It was great meeting Vidic. He made us realise how important it is to make the most out of this opportunity and to put everything into it.” She is also very excited about pulling on the famous Three Lions shirt. We wish her all the best!
