Weekend Roundup from the Junior Section
In a very entertaining and close fought game, a strong defensive performance gave the U9 Whites a 2-1 win over Kesgrave kestrels. A penalty from Harley Todd and a thunderbolt from Daniel Fish but the Seasiders two goals up, before the Kestrels pulled one back. A last minute clearance off the line from Flynn Todd ensured the victory for the home side. MOM Charlie Ablitt.
The Under 9 Reds won 10-0 against a good Kesgrave Kestrels side. A quick goal via the penalty spot, nicely converted by Jacob minter-clarke settled any early nerves. Then the goals started coming from some lovely passing football. After half time the boys then went up another gear with a few lovely moves from back to front putting the game out of reach for the opponents.

U11 Reds went away to Wickham Market in the league and drew 2-2. After coming out of the blocks fast and playing great football with lots of shots on goal they came off winning 2-1 at half time. The second half was a good contest with Wickham getting the equaliser, the boys tried hard to find the winner with several chances going begging but in the end had to settle for the draw.
