A BOYS football team is celebrating winning a major competition.
Annfield Plain Junior School beat teams from all over the North-East to win the Ty McGurk trophy.
Headteacher Lynne Tullett said: "When they were given the trophy, they were told they were the first team to win so convincingly and they beat the other three teams in the final.
"We are only a small school and don't have our own playing field so it really is superb. It is a credit to the boys that they have done so well. It shows what talent they have got and they are a very dedicated team and do a lot of practising.
"They are supported by parents and their coach Stephen Griffen spends an awful lot of time working with them."
We are all very pleased with their success."
