Where court met grass! & Saturdays Training game

Superb morning's football on Sunday where BHFC u/9 Black met the Pat /Fyn Futsal all-stars !!
consisting of 4 u/10,s 3 u/9,s and a lively u/8 !!
Black started  on the front foot with 2 early goals from Hayden P and Tobi ,B but the all-stars after 10 mins found a nice Rhythm and with Jordon E pulling the strings in the midfield a 25 minute domination followed . Black found it hard to compete with the midfield and getting caught  on the counter on numerous times, Jordon E netted twice and a superb strike from " WILL I AM" !   caught us " off balance and with Fynn completing the rout  we really looked in trouble . But Black fired back with another Hayden P maizey  run and Faith venturing forward more as the game went on girl power! found space inside the alstars box and levelled the game .A nervous last ten minutes followed and the game was now flowing from  end to end with both teams striking the woodwork ! (I think they are metal !) and with the clock running down the ball fell to the powerful right boot of Mitch P who thundered an un stoppable strike into the top right hand corner .It was a really superb game to watch and I think both teams came out with loads of credit , Black for playing against 4 u/10,s and the Allstars who had  never  played together before and a big up for Louie who didn't stop running for the 60 mins of football. Massive thanks to Dan and Pat for managing the team and for Jake for reefing the game, I am sure the kids and parents will want to play again during the summer.




SATURDAY TRAINING GAME




Great to see we had learnt from our Mauling from Belmont last month, I think we this time were unplayable as Belmont were last month and with Rudi,s team  going out and getting a draw against Harold Hill on Sunday proves that if you learn from defeat you haven't really lost .
The training development games against Belmont are going to be a permanent fixture throughout the yearly calendar 2 evenly matched teams and taking out the  win at all costs mentality can only be better for the players, the fact that no results of these games are ever logged or published means both coaches and  managers can play players anywhere on the pitch even their  goalkeepers and that can only benefit the kids. We have obviously  been doing this for 2 years and I hope that shows in our performances'
