U9 Match Report 08/09/07

DONCASTER ROVERS U9’s

‘The Blues Twos’

‘Season ends as it started’

Saturday 8 September (Home)
v. Ashburton

The season drew to an end with the whole squad back together, with Chris back from his extended vacation in Greece.

It would have been nice to finish with a win, but we had to settle for a 1 – 1 draw, Alex finishing a neat move to give us the lead, only for Ashburton to equalise before half time.

Despite some missed chances in the second half, we were unable to transfer our pressure into a winning goal, and had to settle for a draw.

Over the past 16 weeks, we have played some great soccer (football to me!), and considering our squad was assembled for the first time only a couple of weeks before the season started, it is a credit to how the boys have played and performed.

Every boy has improved and will continue to do so. Supported by a great group of parents, Jim as team manager and part-time referee together with Andrew, I would like to thank you all for a tremendous season and making it a most memorable one.

Thanks to Kirk, Lochie, Jeremy, James, Justin, Chris, Ari, Peter, Alex, Jack, Jonathon and Josh for being a terrific bunch of lads to coach.

Well done, boys!!!! You should be proud of your efforts, roll on 2008.

Season:- P 16 W10 D3 L3 Gls for 57 Gls Ag 30.


C’mon the B2s
