Eve Milliken stepped up to slot the ball away and give Park a four goal advantage. Hannah Mitchell and Evie MacLennan would both claim their second goals of the match to leave the half time score to Park. The second half continued in the same fashion with Park Girls well on top. It was Dingwall though who would claim the first goal of the half via a thunderous free kick that found the bottom corner of the goal.

Park responded strongly and 4 goals from Evie MacLennan giving her a double hat trick and 2 from Jessica Thom put Park up. Another great performance from the girls. Can they make it 20 games unbeaten next week against Kiltearn? Kiltearn took an early lead when they were awarded a contentious penalty. The first effort was well saved by Michael Bennion with the rebound coming off the post. This resulted in a scramble with Kiltearn turning the ball in to take an early lead.

They pulled a good goal back from a corner and then a great strike levelled the scores. In the last minute Kiltearn had an opportunity to win the game as their striker ran through on goal.

An unfortunate slip at the vital moment saw the ball trickle wide and the game finish in a deserved draw. Park started brightly and were in control of the game, taking a well deserved lead through Harry Fraser. Park Girls continued their amazing unbeaten run with a hard fought victory against Knockbreck in Tain. The first half saw Park dominate but were thwarted by a series of great saves by the Knockbreck goalkeeper.

In the second half Park again dominated and Hannah Mitchell doubled the lead with a good strike. Kady Morrison then reacted well to fire a loose ball into the net to give Park a more comfortable lead.

Knockbreck then came into the game more and threatened with a number of attacks. They score a well deserved goal when a looping shot lobbed Lilly Mackenzie to reduce the deficit to two goals. A very challenging game, well done to both teams. Park took on Knockbreck in a rematch of a game earlier in the season that finished Again it proved to be a very even affair with both sides having periods of dominance. In the first half Park opened the scoring when a Jamie Macleod cross was met superbly on the volley by Harry Fraser.

Knockbreck bounced back well and levelled the scores soon after. Knockbreck then took control and should have taken the lead when a shot from 2 yards out rattled the underside of the bar. The teams went into the break though with the scores level at 1 goal a piece. Park then took control and a loose pass from the Knockbreck defence was closed down superbly by Kenyon Chivero. His tenacity paid off as he was able to pounce on the lose ball to make it Park continued to press and took the lead when George Forth drove forward and shot from outside the box, finding the bottom corner to put Park ahead.

This lead only lasted a minute as Knockbreck broke well and a good lob sailed over the Park goalkeeper and into the net to even the scores. Harry was quick to react and after a scramble was able to turn the ball into the net to give Park a narrow win. Park Girls continue to astound everyone with their performances, this time defeating another academy side by a huge margin. The game started quite even with the height and speed advantage of the academy side evident. Park did not let this advantage make a difference as their organisation and determination more than cancelling it out.

Park took control and took a two goal lead through Evie Maclennan. Tain Academy threatened and a one on one was superbly saved by Lilly Mackenzie as she threw herself down to smother the ball at the feet of the attacker.

After that goal Tain found it near impossible to find a way through a very well organised Park defence. Park took control of the game and dominated.

Park Primary took part in the third annual Ross Shire Football Tournament which saw a record 28 teams compete with 30 schools represented.

Park started their campaign in Group A with 4 other teams. In the first match Park recorded a comfortable victory over South Lodge. This was followed up with another victory in their second match, another victory against Obsdale. Park then took on their nearest rivals in the group Ben Wyvis and were again able to emerge victorious with a victory. In the final match of the group stages Park rounded up a very successful start to the competition with another victory, this time a victory against Resolis.

This was the first time that a Park side had come top of their group in the Ross Shire Tournament. In the quarter finals Park faced the runners up of Group B Tarradale. In this match Park created many chances but failed to convert them. Tarradale took the lead with a breakaway goal midway through the match. Park continued to battle and scored a well deserved equaliser to leave the final score This meant that the match would go to a penalty shootout. Park showed great determination to keep battling throughout the match.

This is the furthest that any Park side has ever reached in the Ross Shire Tournament and the team should all be really proud of their achievements. The girls team took part in the inaugural girls football tournament which saw 8 teams compete to be the first name on the shield.

The tournament was divided into 2 groups of 4 teams and each team played everyone in their group twice. Park Girls started their campaign strongly with a victory over South Lodge with goals coming from Poppy Junor x2 and Hannah Mitchell. Park would later defeat South Lodge in their second encounter with a Poppy Hattrick and a goal from Hannah making the difference.

Park Primary School

In the second encounter Park would secure a narrow victory with Poppy scoring the goal. Park ended with 4 wins and 2 draws out of their 6 games. More impressively Park did not conceed a goal in all of their games. Park progressed to the semi-finals where they faced Dornoch. The strong Park defence was again on show with Dornoch unable to create any chances of note. This led to the game finishing goalless and the dreaded lottery of penalties. Unfortunately Dornoch would come out on top in the penalty shoot out by 2 goals to 0.

Craighill would progress to emerge victorious in the final against Dornoch with a victory and take home the shield. Park Girls can be very proud of their achievements and luck unfortunately went against them on the day. The sportsmanship and attitude shown by all the girls was excellent. A belated update on the girls game prior to the Easter Holidays. An excellent display from Park Girls saw them emerge victorious in the friendly game against Craighill.

Hannah would later add a second goal to her to total followed by a goal from Poppy Junor to give Park a half time lead. Park continued to dominate in the second half and Hannah Mitchell added 4 more goals along with Poppy Junor doubling her total to put Park in a commanding lead. Great sportsmanship and attitude was shown by the girls and we look forward to The Ross Shire tournament on the 10th May.

Park suffered a rare defeat going down to an excellent Craighill team who are by far the strongest side we have faves this year. They will be the team to beat come the Ross Shire tournament in May. Park gave a very disciplined and organised performance in the first half to keep the score at half time. This scoreline was aided in a big way by Park goalkeeper Stephen Ross who was excellent through the the game, pulling off a number of fantastic saves.

His performance drew much praise from the Craighill coach. The second half saw Craighill make the long awaited breakthrough. They soon added another two goals to give them a three goal cushion. Park though showed great resilience and a great breakaway saw Kyle Clark prod the ball past the Craighill goalkeeper to make the score Craighill added another two goals as the match drew to a close. A great battling performance from Park, especially in the first half and this will give us confidence should we meet Craighill in May. In two weeks time Park take on another Tain school, Knockbreck in a friendly match.

Park Primary took part in the Soccer Sevens tournament in Tain, finishing a very respectable 4th. Park also had one of the best defensive records in the competition only conceding 3 goals in the 8 games they played. Park goalkeeper Stephen Ross played a big part in this by pulling off a number of heroic saves which brought great praise from opposition coaches and spectators. These performances earned him the player of the tournament award. Park started the tournament slowly and went down in their opening game against Culbokie. This was followed up by a goalless draw against Dingwall.

Park then suffered only their second defeated of the day narrowly going down to Avoch. A series of fantastic saves on top of a saved penalty by Stephen Ross saw Park share the spoils. The park defence was again strong as another goalless draw followed against Knockbreck. Park then went on a winning run, coming out on top in their remaining three games. First a Graidh Mackenzie goal was enough for Park to claim a victory against Milton. In the penultimate match a fantastic free kick from Lennox Grant gave Park another victory, this time against Kiltearn.

In the final match against Tarradale George Forth pounced after the ball struck the post twice to secure another win. This left Park in 4th position in the table. A huge well done to all the boys who took part, showing great determination as Park kept 6 clean sheets out of 8 games! A final table will be posted once it has been received by the organisers.

A great game with great sportsmanship shown from both sides. Park Primary School won the inaugural Mid-Ross Football Tournament, winning every game in the process while not conceding a goal! The tournament consisted of 7 teams playing a round robin. Park started with a strong performance beating Obsdale This was followed up with a convincing win against Coulhill. Further and wins followed against Milton and Ardross respectively.

In the penultimate game Park faced a Kiltearn side who had also won every preceding game, meaning that this game would go a long way in deciding the eventual tournament winner. A close and tense game saw very few chances created by either side. With a couple of minutes to go a dangerous cross from Graidh Mackenzie was turned into the net by an unfortunate Kiltearn defender to give Park a very narrow victory.

A special mention must go to Park B Park youth or next generation might be a more apt name!
