Under 8's at our home tournament.
Wow wow totally amazed by this tight team. They won all 6 of their games to get to the semi final against Leighton buzzard (for the past two years losing out to them so a rivalry was there and nervous kids) set up a tight 7 mins which ended in a goalless draw. Decision made for sudden death and boy oh boy did they battle having 6 attempts on goal all saved or post to ohh and ahhs to deliver the killer blow with every member of the team touching the ball and then hammered into back of net to take them to a final against Bedford. Bedford a strong skillful side!!!! With Shefford and Sandy scoring first, last 10 seconds Bedford determination paid off to a drawer another sudden death round again feeling nervous with both sides equal, we managed with great passing, running and grit to get the final goal making us winners to end an epic day ????.
Team, Digby (strong passes), Elliot (skillful and put his body on the line), beau (everywhere and stubborn in his desire to win), Darcy ( new with a strong defensive tackle ), Lewis (top striker good hard shots) Amelie (graceful, fluid and determined). Special mention to Freya who wasn't well had to go. Super proud a delight to coach
Thankyou all the parents for your humour, support and braving the cold. Hope everyone had fun
