| Monday 13th November 2023 | PASS LKS2 Boys Football League v Langley Park | Won 4-2 | The LKS2 boys kicked off their league campaign in style.

| Thursday 16th November 2023 | PASS LKS2 Boys Football League v Wateringbury | Won 7-1 | It was a trip to Wateringbury CE Primary school for the LKS2 team for their second game in the league. It was a very wet day and the pitch had soaked up a large amount of that water. The boys used the weather and pitch to their advantage and played some fantastic passing football to cruise to a comfortable win against a battling side. It was definitely a performance to be proud of. |
| Friday 17th November 2023 | Maidstone Primary UKS2 Girls Football | Third Place | It was tournament day for the UKS2 girls this time, again being held at Greenfields. The girls were also placed in a tough group, but were able to top their group with some strong battling performances. Progressing through to the knockouts, the girls continued to show their grit and determination to progress through the quarter-finals, into the semis. Unfortunately, the girls just lost out, against a strong side who went on to win the tournament. However, the girls picked themselves up again and battled hard in the 3rd/4th play off to take home bronze for the school and do themselves and everyone else proud. |
| Monday 21st November 2023 | PASS UKS2 Girls Football CUP v Tiger | Won 5-0 |
After two successful tournaments, this was out first full game of the season. The girls started the game confidently, taking early control of the game with superb defending and excellent attacking play. After a few early chances, going close to scoring - Doris hitting the post and the bar and the Tiger goalkeeper making some good saves, mid-way though the half we scored twice through Doris with some excellent solo runs and strikes. The chances in the half kept coming with the girls growing in confidence and now starting to pass and cross the ball. Half-time 2-0 to Greenfield. The second half continued in the same vein, Greenfield playing great football, using everyone in the team. Any chances Tiger had were thwarted by Blossom, Parisa and Saray from the midfield and defence respectively. Tiger did get one great opportunity in the second half when they were given a penalty for handball, which was not converted because of an excellent save by Leah. After that, the game was one way. We scored another 3 goals through Doris and Olivia (2). This was an excellent team performance against a team that the week before reached the QF of the girls tournament. |
| Thursday 23rd November 2023 | KS1 vs Marden | Lost 7-1 | It was a first ever game for the newly formed KS1 team. It was a tough test against a very strong Marden side at home. The team gave everything they had, but unfortunately Marden were simply on another level and confidently dispatched all their chances. |
| Friday 24th November 2023 | Maidstone Primary LKS2 Mixed Football | 1st | It was time again for another tournament, this time for the LKS2 team to test themselves against more opposition. In what was a very cold and bitter day, the team took a while to adjust to the 8-minute matches. However, once they had adjusted, they began to battle harder. Progressing from their group as one of the best 2nd place teams, the team entered the knockouts. They put in a competent performance in the quarter-finals, to then find themselves at a stalemate in the semis. It was time for a penalty shoot-out. In what was a nerve-racking shoot-out, the team were able to win and progress to the finals. The final proved to be a tense game, facing St Johns who were part of the same group and topped the group earlier on in the day. However, a moment of set piece brilliance paid off in the final, with a corner being swung in and the ball being headed into the top corner. This proved to be the last kick of the game and the team came away as winners. It was a truly deserved win, the team grafted for each other and everybody put in some fantastic performances. |
