Yesterdays match against Southcott Owls

Yesterday was a great day for football and another good performance by the boys, beating Southcott (who are not used to losing!) 4-0.

We didn't give the Southcott players time on the ball, closing down quickly all over the pitch and causing lots of problems for their defence when going forward.

Well done to Josh Hearn who scored on his debut, there was also some great performances from Danny (2 goals) and Alfie (1 goal) and Ben in goal made a couple vital interceptions in his penalty area diving into to gather the ball before Southcott had chances to shoot.

The Man of The Match today went to Freddie who made some fantastic tackles which unsettled the Southcott players, he showed great positional play and also proved that defenders can assist high up the pitch while not forgetting the important defensive work.

Big thanks to Joseph for refereeing the game so well. Joseph is currently working on his Duke Of Edinburgh award and is helping us out with training and match day duties as part of the award.

The Sports Hall training has now finished, but I will be running a session on our pitch from 5:30 to 7:00 on Thursday to work on some tactics for our Cup Match v Wing next Saturday...if anyone is available to help out let me know. As before, I'm not expecting parents to stay!
