YOUNGSTERS at a Teesside secondary school are celebrating after becoming the North-East champions and national semi-finalists in a five-a-side football competition.
The team, from Conyers School, Yarm, took the title recently when they travelled to play at Wigan's JJB Soccerdome.
Warren Dutton, director of football at Conyers, said yesterday: "The boys played fantastically well throughout the competition, from local, district, regional and eventually to the national level at Wigan.
"They have been a real credit to themselves, to their parents and also to their school."
