Gracing the pitch
HATTRICK hero Grace Stableford has been selected for the ISFA Girls National Under-16 football squad.
The Bede’s pupil was been selected for the representative squad after attending the ISFA U16 Girls Development Camp held in August.
The squad will train at the National Football Centre at St George’s Park in December.
Bede’s head of football David Caryer said: “This an outstanding achievement and one well deserved for Grace’s commitment and enthusiasm for sport and football in particular. This will give Grace the opportunity to sample some of the best facilities this country has on offer.”
Grace was one of the star players in recent trial matches for the ISFA scoring a hattrick inside 20 minutes at her last game.
