This year, the Earlscliffe football team has shown extraordinary dedication on and off the field. They are training harder than ever to build skills and to strengthen the bonds that make us stand out as a community within a British Boarding School. Some of these young adults only joined Earlscliffe in September. They have adjusted to life in a boarding school, adapted to a new country, and are already working together to secure an impressive winning streak. They last won against a local academy 10-0! And as their confidence grows, so does their prowess on the field.
Each training session is not only about mastering tactics and improving fitness, but also about embodying the Earlscliffe values that shape our team of international students.
Commitment is at the heart of everything we do. Our players have put in countless hours to improve individually and as a unit, demonstrating that commitment goes beyond attendance. It’s a devotion to each drill, and each piece of advice from Coach Harry. This dedication has strengthened our team’s resilience, helping players to develop a growth mindset and overcome challenges together.
Respect within the team is feeding teamwork and a positive atmosphere both on and off the field. Our players are communicating brilliantly and working together toward shared goals – this is particularly significant in a school where our international players are sharing different cultural approaches to the game.
Finally, Community is what makes Earlscliffe football truly special. Our players support one another, celebrate each other’s successes, and rally together in adversity. This unity goes beyond the pitch, creating a network of students who look out for one another, making our community stronger.
