EARBY Springfield Primary School have been crowned champions of the 2019 Pendle Hockey Tournament.

The mixed team of boys and girls competed against five other Pendle primary schools in the competition held at Marsden Heights High School.

They were undefeated throughout the competition, scoring over 20 goals and only conceding two.

It is the second year that Earby have triumphed in the Pendle hockey competition.

Earby will now go on to represent Pendle at the Lancashire School Games held at Stanley Park in Blackpool in July.

Headteacher Dawn Liversidge said: "The children have been practising weekly in all weathers to prepare for the tournament and this dedication is reflected in yet another sporting triumph for our school."
