Summer Tournaments

We have also entered two 6-a-side tournaments, on 11 May (timing not known) at Marlborough and 7 June (in the afternoon) at Wootton Bassett. As we will only be able to take a maximum of eight players to each tournament, I need to know first and second choices and any non-availability. I'll try and fit in with the preferences as much as possible, but as places are limited if I don't receive a reply for any players they won't be able to play.

Sunday 10th February: U13 v Lydiard Youth B

This was another impressive performance against a strong side, coming back from two goals down for the second week running, with goals from Will and Matt R. The defence worked hard all game, supported by the midfielders, who also linked well with the forwards. There were plenty of chances in the second half but, unfortunately, it was Lydiard who managed who managed to score another goal.

The Coaches' award went to Will, whilst Jack gave the Captain's award to Matt J.

Squad: Toby, Dan, Oli B, Matt J, Dom, Will, Chris, Jack, Ben, Matt R, Lewis, Oli H and Jonathon

Sunday 3rd February: U13 v Croft Juniors B

A much better performance by all the players for the whole match, resulted in an exciting 2-2 draw. All the goals came in the first half, with Croft taking a two-goal lead. Ben pulled one back before Matt R scored the equaliser. There was plenty of goalmouth action in the second half, but neither side could score again.

The whole team played well this week, with plenty of challenges for the ball, strong defensive work and good attacking play. Matt J awarded the Captain's trophy to Matt R, whilst Jonathon received the Coaches' award.

Squad: Toby, Dan, Matt J, Oli B, Dom, Will, Chris, Jack, Ben, Matt R, Lewis, Oli H and Jonathon
