Thanks are due to Lee and Pete who ran the coaching this year, plus to all the parents who referreed, run the line and otherwise supported the team.
It was another hard season and the small squad suffered with Oli P's long-term injury, as well as other intermittent absences over the course of the year. The team did manage to score well, with Matt R top-scoring with 15 goals, followed by Ben with 8, then Will and Luke both getting 5.
Highlights of the season were the early game against the eventual champions, Greenmeadow B, who were almost beaten, a 2-2 draw against Croft Juniors B (after being 0-2 down), then beating Highworth Juniors (after again being 0-2 down) and Cirencester Town B. The two games against Northleach were also memorable, both ending in 5-5 draws.
The main concern for next season is having enough players, so any new additions would be very welcome.
The Player and Parents’ Award was deservedly won by Matt J. This reflected his massive improvement since in joined the Club and conversion to a defensive position, together with his positive attitude and commitment.
The Coaches' Award went to another player who improved greatly during the season, Jack. He started the season looking strong and fit, then built upon this with some commanding performances in the middle of the field as he battled for everything.
