Saturday 21 May was not only a big day for two of Scotland’s top football teams as they competed in the Scottish Cup Final at Hampden, it was also the day and venue for the first year of the SFA Performance Programme graduates.

Fifteen S4 pupils from Braidhurst High School were amongst the 83 graduates from across the 7 performance schools in Scotland, with each receiving their medal and certificate from Scotland National Team Manager, Gordon Strachan.   The group were also treated to a ticket to watch the main event at 3 pm after being presented to the crowd on the Hampden pitch prior to the match.

This was a fantastic culmination to 4 years of hard work and dedication from the pupils involved.

Congratulations to all !
