I really enjoyed watching the competition this afternoon. All the games were close fought and competitive. I was really
pleased with our Y9 and 10 boys, they played fantastically, showing skill,
determination and great team spirit. Our opening game against Skipwith was
an end to end affair, neither team could quite dominate the game and we were
unlucky to lose by one goal. Next up Orchard, one of the
pre tournament favourites, this game was played at high pace, Everett
communicated well and good passing play and decisive breaks led us to run out
deserving winners 2-1 both goals score by Hassan. Hassan, Kieran and Joseph were proving
a potent combination up front, whilst wingers Harvey, Charlie and Ben provided
good ball and helped keep a strong defence with Josh; Oscar kept goal well and
Bilal proved useful coming off the bench. Our heads were up and a crunch game
against Burr proved to be a real nail biter, this one we snuck 1-0. That left
us the deciding game against Welsh, again played at a cracking pace, with both
teams giving their all, in the end a 1-1 draw was a fair reflection of the
game. The boys were delighted as that placed us joint first with Skipwith on 7
points, unfortunately Skipwith were awarded the trophy on goal difference,
Everett losing out by just one goal!
