Croft 2 - 0 Wasps

It's a shame we lost our last match, but the performance was certainly nothing to be ashamed off. Apart from a 5 minute spell when we lost the 2 goals, everybody played well against a tough team on a spongy pitch.



Well done to Charlie for another smashing performance and to Ewan for keeping a clean sheet in the first half.




Man of the match to everyone today!




Our final league position is 10th (equal on points with Ferndale Rodbourne who sneaked a win vs Robins). While the results haven't gone our way since Christmas we have performed better than we might have expected moving up to a harder league. We can be proud of our results and the way we have played throughout the season. I don't think any team can say they had an easy match against Wanborough U10s!




Thanks very much to the boys for all their hard work throughout the season, we hope they've had fun and learnt some skills. Thanks to all the parents for supporting the team. Thanks to Per Axel and Tony for their coaching and patience, and also to Toby Chevis for his help.




We will still be training on Mondays for the time being and Helen will let you know about warm-up 11-a-side matches.




Reminder: please let me have any votes for Player of the Season and remember AGM Fun Day on May 16th.
