Our U9 Colts have come up runners up at the Thame 6 a side tournament.

In our group stage we won 3 and drew 3, (conceding only 1 goal) beating Prestwood Colts 1-0, Bedgrove Colts 1-0 and Haddenham Panthers 3-1 (coming from behind to win comfortably). We drew 0-0 to Chalfont St Peter, 0-0 to Seer Green Colts and 0-0 to Ducklington Blues. Our 12 points from 6 games saw us top the group and progress into the final against Prestwood Colts.

Having beaten Prestwood in the group stage, meeting them again in the final proved one game to many for our boys who sadly came out second best losing 0-2.

A lot of positives can be taken from the colts performances throughout the tournament, in particular their hard work and desire. Their constant pressing of the opposition was to prove the hallmark of their performances, combined with great teamwork, very solid defending and taking our opportunities when they counted. It was great to watch. Well done boys.
