Slazenger girls under 14's secured promotion to league 6 with fantastic team performances on Sunday. Slazengers dominated in both their games, demonstrating great supportive play with movement on and off the ball. Pre tournament team talks centred (amongst other things) around the need to score goals as promotion had previously been denied when a better goal difference would have been enough. The girls did not disappoint scoring 3 in the first game against Huddersfield with goals from Leah … [Read more...] about Report: 25-01-2015 – Girls U14’s Tournament (Brigshaw)

Report: 24-01-2015 – Mens 1st’s (4) vs. (2) Lincoln 1st’s
Slazengers men's 1st traveled away to Lincoln and picked up a good three points, even thought their performance was not at their usual high tempo. Slazengers took a 2 goal lead from good interlink play where Richard Tuddenham made 2 good assists (Yes - I said assists!) from the usually greedy forward to Daniel Perry who finished very well in front of goal.

Both teams had early chances but it was Slazengers who broke the deadlock when good work from Dan Atkinson down the right found Simon Randall on the … [Read more...] about Report: 24-01-2015 – Mens 2nd’s (3) vs. (1) City of York 4th’s
