A SCHOOL football team has won a place in the quarter final of a national competition.
The year nine team from Eastbourne School, Darlington, has qualified for the Four Aces National Schools Cup, after beating a team from Bradford 4-1 on Monday.
The team will meet a team from Billington, near Manchester, next week.
Headteacher Karen Pemberton said: "They could have beaten Chelsea the way they played the other night."
