THE Royal National College for the Blind's (RNC) football team have cemented their place in sporting history after being officially crowned Champions of Europe this weekend in Paris. 

The team secured an emphatic victory in the European Blind Football League (EBFL) with a round to spare.

Their dominant performance throughout the competition saw them finish top of the league table with an unassailable 30 points.

RNC Hereford not only scored a staggering 41 goals, but remarkably kept a clean sheet throughout the five rounds of competition.

The official presentation of the trophy took place in Bondy near Paris after the team's final two matches against Pirsos Thessaloniki (RNC 5 - 0 Pirsos) and Bondy Cecifoot Club (RNC 1 - 0 Bondy), marking the culmination of a truly remarkable season. 

RNC's success extends beyond the European title. Eesa Amjid, a standout player for Hereford, picked up the Golden Boot award after netting 18 goals throughout the competition.

There were also accolades for RNC’s goalkeeping team, with Dylan Malpas picking up the Goalkeeper of the Tournament award.

This European triumph adds another trophy to RNC Hereford's already impressive cabinet. They are now proud treble winners, having clinched the National Blind Football League and the Brian Aarons Cup earlier this season.

The team's relentless pursuit of victory does not stop here. Their next challenge is the FA Disability Cup final at St. George's Park on June 29, where they will face off against West Bromwich Albion.

The Hereford students can secure a historic quadruple, with the match being shown live on TNT Sports.
