Under 13 Eagles Newcastle Tournament
Finishing top of the group with three wins and one draw. Onto the quarter final, the Eagles had to dig deep and won 2-1. The semi final was a nail biting 1-1 in open play, meaning the game went to penalties for a place in the final however, the boys were so unlucky and lost in the shoot out. A fantastic team performance from every player, giving 100%, they should be very proud of themselves. Well done everyone.
Aycliffe U13 Girls 10 v Belmont Blue Jays 1
(Sponsored by Mobile Rocket – Software Development) – Unbelievable performance, the girls were relentless from start to finish and gave the opposition little chance of making an impression. We went into the game with a 3-1-4-2 formation which helped us dominate the game, and secure a good win.
Coaches POTM: Yasmin; Players Player: Payton.
Redcar Town U9’s v Aycliffe U9 Eagles
After a busy summer, the boys started their pre-season with a friendly away to Redcar. The only goal of the game came early as Redcar scored, but the Eagles did not let that affect them and kept playing their football. Overall the Eagles probably deserved a comfortable win, but could just not find the net or beat their goalkeeper. A great run out and an encouraging performance.
