A huge thank you and well done to everyone that took part and donated to the boys sponsored run a few weeks ago. Grassroots wouldn’t happen if it wasn’t for much needed sponsorship.🙏

Today’s game was from the off going to be tough. We had the bare 11 and our main coach was off sunning himself in Spain on a well deserved family holiday. We told the boys that they needed to just battle from the first whistle with no negativity or back chat to the ref. The boys started exactly how we wanted them too, they pressed and tackled and battled from the first whistle and we could see we had the opposition rattled with our constant battling. Jordan Taylor scored a great free kick in the fist half to get us in at halftime 1-0 up. The half time talk was just do the Same again and we win this game. The opposition used their subs well and we started to tire with a few injuries creeping in also but credit to the whole team they didn’t give up and dug in when needed. We had a few chances to get a 2nd but it didn’t come, but more importantly we kept them from having any real chances - our Keeper Chazza was there when called upon but as a collective the boys dug deep and did everything they could to keep a clean sheet. We ended up winning the game 1-0 which was amazing as last week against them we lost 6-2! Managers player of the game went to the whole team - honestly we couldn’t just single out one player as they all deserved the award. Parents player went to Charlie Green who was a rock on defence every time they tried to attack. Overall a very very good win and a superb team performance.
Thank you to our Sponsors Brixham Garage and Bayside for your continued support! Also thank you to all of the amazing support from all the parents. Special mention to Chris and Adam for stepping into coach the boys whilst Bobby was away. Next up Watcombe at Home in another big game.
Up the Upton!
