FREETHORPE FC U13 SUMMER REPORT


FREETHORPE U13 (Summer Report)Following their success in the Acle tournament, Freethorpe put a team in the FITC Flybe Tournament and done especially well to reach the semi-finals. In the tough group stages they won 5 and drew 1 to top the group, only to then lose in the semi-final 1-0 to a very good Old Catton side. We then entered the Canary Cup with an A and B team. The B team were missing a key player and lost another due to injury so very well done to them to finish 2nd in their group and to reach the quarter finals. Things initially did not look good for the A team after finding out they had lost a player a day prior to the game which left only four. Some very quick thinking by the manager managed to find a replacement. The new lad settled in very quickly and the team put in a fantasic performance against some very good teams scoring 29 goals and conceding only 4. In the quarter finals against a very strong Downham side they put in the best performance to date. They then progressed to the final to play a good Drayton side and won. A very good summer and hopefully if we can now take this to 11 aside we will have a very good season. Training has now resumed at Freethorpe Playing Field 6-7.15pm every Wednesday in preparation for the step up to the 2nd division. So far signs are good and it already looks as if we will be fielding 11 players for the first time in two seasons, there may even be serious competiion for places.Pictures are the A team with the Canary Cup. The Teams were Ben, Nathan, Josh, Sam, Dominic, Bradley, Dan, Tom M, Tom C, Elliott, Callum.
