Back again.....

 

23 January 2008 and we're into the tail end of the season. The record so far is won 8 lost 2, sitting second in the league, 2 points behind the leaders with a game in hand so everything to play for.

 

Without taking our eye's off the job in hand we must now look to the summer tournaments, these are great fun & offer the chance to play new opposition, details of the tournaments on offer will be posted in the news section shortly.

 

Summer soccer schools will also be arranged at the club for most junior ages. All readers whether current members and players, or not, are encouraged to attend. Again details will be posted in the junior section of the website.

 

I would like to repeat or thanks to Mitie Scotgate who generously sponsored our kit, The Stamford Mercury who publish our match reports and all parents & spectators for the support given through the season. We have a presentation evening scheduled for 15 March at the Club, all players & their families / friends are invited to attend

 

Now let us focus on those four remaining games; Parkway Eagles (H), Bourne Clarets (A), Abbey Athletic (H) & Thorney Colts (H)

Welcome to the Under 8's Blue page;

 

The team evolved from the successful summer schools ran by Jason Chatham in 2006 and this in turn led to an extremely enjoyable & successful series of tournaments at Peterborough Embankment,

 

Needless to say Jason "persuaded" me to take the team forward & we have now formed a nucleaus of 7 great players. ( I haven't yet got parental permission to name them on the web site)

 

On top of our successes at the Embankment we have now competed at the Yaxley Tournament as U7's & most recently at the Eye Tournament in our first turn-out as U8's. In this tounament we played some great football & secured 3 wins, 2 draws & 2 defeats (only by single goals on both occasions). Sadly we missed the semi's by 1 point but there is plently of promise in the team & I feel sure we'll have a good season.

 

So to enjoy some good football get yourselves to Outgang Road for 10.30 KO's starting 15 September.

 

Please look out for our match reports as & when we play & please also let me have feedback on our website contributions, good or bad, as I'm new to this. For me the ball is the wrong shape for a start!

 

Have a great season everyone....
