England are IBSA Tri Nations Champions!

England Women's Blind Football team celebrated victory at the IBSA Tri Nations tournament at the end of April at St George's Park.


The squad, under Head Coach Tony Larkin, featured some familiar RNC faces:

Katie Christopher, Sighted Goalkeeper (RNC staff)
Lucja Wyrwantowicz (current RNC student)
Alice Hopkins (former RNC student)
Tash Mead (former RNC student)

England secured their place in the final with wins against Poland (2-0) and Sweden (2-1). Poland and Sweden's subsequent 0-0 draw saw Sweden advance to the final on goal difference.

In a decisive match, England once again defeated Sweden 2-0 in the final, with Lucja Wyrwantowicz claiming the top goalscorer spot.

A promising sign for the future of this developing England team - well done to Tony and all the players - Tri Nations Champions!
