Le Rocquier girls were beaten finalists in the five-a-side competition while De La Salle College missed making the semi-finals by the narrowest margin on goal-difference.
Ali Talbot, of Le Rocquier School, said: ‘The girls were brilliant.
We have a fairly good team and I was a little surprised we did as well as we did.
‘To get that far was great, they played excellently; their team work and communication throughout was superb.
‘We won our group then our semi-final but unfortunately we were beaten in the final 3-0 by Matthew Arnold from Spelthorne.’ Le Rocquier came through their group with two wins and a draw before defeating Shirley High 1-0 in the semi-finals.
Le Rocquier: Claire Garnier, Tamsyn Abraham, Holly Godfrey, Allisha Livesey, Cassie Devereux, Amy Martin and Courtney McDade.
De La Salle College recovered from two games without a win to finish joint-top of their group but they missed qualifying for the knock-out stage by just one goal.
It was a cruel blow as they suffered bad luck in their opening two games.
Bradley Stratford, a last-minute replacement for the ill Charlie Sanchez, had a goal ruled out against Northfleet while the goal they conceded in the 1-1 draw was a penalty when a defender marginally stepped into the penalty area.
De La Salle should have won game two but Calvin Weir and Charlie Petulla were thwarted by some good goalkeeping.
A crossfield pass then resulted in the ball deflecting into De La Salle’s goal and they were beaten 1-0.
Sam Crabtree scored from the penalty spot to secure a 1-0 win in game three to set up a group decider against leaders Patcham.
The Jersey side had to win by two clear goals to win the group and despite a brave effort they missed out by one goal after winning 2-1 following goals by Petulla and Stratford.
Weir suffered a pulled thigh muscle in the defeat.
Patcham went on to win their semi-final on penalties before being defeated in the final.
The National finals are in Derby in April with the boys and girls winners representing England in a similar competition in Germany during the forthcoming World Cup.
De La Salle College: Calvin Weir (captain), Scott Clayton, Calum Rabet, Charles Hubert, Jack Burroughs, Sam Crabtree, Bradley Stratford and Charlie Petulla.
