GOOD WEEKEND FOR CITY GIRLS

It was a fine weekend for City's girls teams as they achieved some successful results. The under 16s beat Newlaithes Jules 6-0 with goals from Alice Simpson (2), Becky Rush, Megan Franklin, Mel Clarke and a spectacular headed own goal, from an Ashleigh Hunter cross (pictured here). Girl of the game was Megan Frankiln, for her work-rate in the middle of the pitch.
The under 14s beat Brampton 8-0, with goals from Shona Nanson (3), Megan Hurst, Emily Moran, Imogen Townsend, Alison McCorry & Molly Lytollis. Coach Duncan Adams said " The girls played well but it is always hard to play against a team that has less players than you, and the Brampton girls made it very difficult with their work-rate". All of the girls were asked to share the girl of the game award.
The under 12s enjoyed an 11-4 victory over Penrith on Saturday afternoon, although credit must be given to the Penrith side for going ahead with the game despite being short of numbers.
The under 10s travelled to Blencogo to meet Abbeytown, and they came away with a good 3-0 win.
The only side who tasted defeat were the under 14s A, who lost 3-1 at Abbeytown.

The photos from the under 16s v Newlaithes Jules are here.

UNDER 11s A KICK A BALL AGAIN

City's under 11s A have been without a match for three months, so they were delighted to have a run-out this weekend. They returned with a vengeance as they won 5-0 in a physical encounter at Abbeytown. Their goals were scored by Luke Kemp, Vincent Wong, Josh Doggart, Ben Mackenzie & Harry Ewbank.
