St Peter And St Paul's Catholic Voluntary Academy
St Peter and St Paul's Catholic Voluntary Academy (formerly St Peter and St Paul's Catholic High School) is a coeducational Roman Catholic secondary school and sixth form with academy status, situated in Lincoln, England. It is one of only two Catholic high schools in Lincolnshire and the smallest secondary school in Lincoln. History In 1949, Lincoln's two thousand Roman Catholics were told that they needed to raise around £75,000 for alterations to St Hugh's RC school, and for a new secondary modern school in Boultham. The school was built in the late 1950s. When the school opened in 1959, it was very small and could only hold a limited number of pupils; over time the school added additional buildings, and several different subjects were included in the curriculum, such as woodwork and metalwork, but these were dropped through curriculum change. A new church, costing £50,000, was planned to be built; the school hall took the place of a catholic church on Sundays, in the 196 ...

Substitute (association Football)
In association football, a substitute is a player who is brought on to the pitch during a match in exchange for an existing player. Substitutions are generally made to replace a player who has become tired or injured, or who is performing poorly, or for tactical reasons (such as bringing a striker on in place of a defender). A player who has been substituted during a match takes no further part in the game, in games played under the standard International Football Association Board Laws of the Game. Substitutions were officially added to the Laws of the Game in 1958. Prior to this most games were played with no changes permitted at all, with occasional exceptions in cases of extreme injury or players not arriving to matches on time. The number of substitutes has risen over time as well as the number of reserve players allowed to be nominated. It is now common for games to allow a maximum of 5 substitutions; some competitions allow for an additional substitution when playing ext ...

Lincolnshire Senior Cup
The Lincolnshire Senior County Cup is a football (soccer) competition for senior football clubs in Lincolnshire organised by the Lincolnshire FA. The competition can be traced back to the formation of the Lincolnshire FA at a meeting held at the Queens Hotel in Lincoln on Saturday 17 September 1881 and sixteen teams entered the inaugural Lincolnshire Cup competition with Spilsby the first winners in 1881—82. Spilsby would go on to win the first three competitions and consequently they were allowed to retain the initial trophy. When the competition first started it was treated as seriously as the FA Cup and the need for a Lincoln team to be successful in the competition following the initial victories by Spilsby, who defeated three Lincoln based teams – Lincoln Rovers, Lincoln Lindum and Lincoln Albion – in the 1883–84 competition, that led to the formation of Lincoln City on 26 June 1884. The elevation of Grimsby Town and Lincoln City to the Football League in 1892 an ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
