(Cadburys) Kraft South West U11
District Associations 2010 Finals
On Saturday 27th March, West Wiltshire represented
Wiltshire at the SW Schools finals at (Cadburys) Kraft in Keynsham.
The
boys were drawn in the toughest of group. Only the winner would represent the
South West at the National finals.
We first played against Dorset
winning 1-0. We then went on to play Bristol and Cornwall. Our final game was
against Oxfordshire, which we had to win by several goals to become winner of
our group. A creative team-plan put us 1 goal up but 2 breakaway goals led to a
2-1 defeat.
Managers and members of the ESFA gave praise for the style
the boys played with. This was nice to hear and will make them better players.
We're looking forward to a couple of wins soon.
Those boys going to Holland today learnt the
same lesson as the Bath boys, that in a competitive short game you should
always look to pass forwards first and you need to take your
chances.
This is an abbreviated report.
