TEN years ago, as a promising young footballer, Michael Garmston captained his school team to cup victory.
Now he has led the same school team to success as a teacher.
Mr Garmston was head boy at Hurworth Comprehensive School, near Darlington, in 1994 and as captain of the year ten football team he led them to victory in the Darlington Schools Cup.
Last year he returned to the school as a PE teacher and started coaching the football team for this year's cup competition.
On Thursday night the team played in the final against a team from Hummersknott School and Language College and won the match 1-0.
Mr Garmston said: "It was ten years almost to the day since I had captained the football team and won the cup. The team did really well and it was good to have another victory for the school."
