With the lack of football else where and a scorching weekend forcast I felt this thread was worth bringing back up again.

A free football feast on your door step.

What a real success this has been.

All visiting teams thanking us for the great organisation and the way the tournament was run.

Our under 16s won their age group, the under 10s lost in the semis on a golden goal to the eventual winners and the under 15s lost in the final on a penalty shoot out while the under 11s went down 1-0 in the semis to the eventual winners.

We have a youth set-up to be proud of.

A very enjoyable weekend had by all and we even turned a profit for the centre of excellence.

My first outing since leaving hospital and what a tonic. So many games it was dificult to choose who to watch. Good to have a chat with Welchy who was wilting under a very hot sun but was racing round in his usual enthusiastic way. Obviously there were many people there working so hard to make it a success and they clearly succeeded WELL DONE. We should all be proud of our youth set up and those who make it work so well.
