Under 13s - Match Report 16/06/2007
Manager: Tim Drake
Tournament: Woodley Saints FC, Berkshire County Sports, Sonning
Results: W - 1, D - 2, L - 2

Woodley Saints is the biggest and possibly the best Tournament locally, on time with A, B and even C tournaments at most levels. Twinned with a very clever "everyone progresses to the Knock-Out stage" in either the plate or Main Competition it works well for all.

The mighty Under 13s hit the ground running and beat a shell shocked Bracknell Colts in our first game of the day. George scores and Dad David wishes he brought the camera!!

Three more group games and a few cigars from Paul and we qualify 2nd out of Seven behind Emmer Green. Into the Quarter Finals against Ashridge Royals we get "mugged" and bow out in the main competition. Special mention to the parents who turned up in force as usual and voted Jake "player of the tournament" and well done to Tom who picked up "key contribution" from Paul and me.

Well done team, couldn't fault your commitment but it wasn't our day today. Seems strange to say that given that now we've won a tournament our expectations are rightly higher and leave us disappointed not to progress and pick up more silverware, still, looking good for the League in September when the offside rule and proper goals and no squad rotation comes in to play. Next up, Ashridge Parks tournament at St.Crispins School on Sunday 24th, can't wait!

Well Done Boys you make my job worthwhile, Tim
