Slazenger U12 Boys look set for promotion to the top division for their next tournament after a successful round of matches in the Yorkshire Youth League at Leeds Metro University last Sunday.

In the first match Chris Wood scored the only goal to defeat Harrogate 1-0, but in their second match, Slaz lost by a similar score to Sheffield.

They then dominated the third match against Rotherham but despite creating numerous chances the game finished goalless.

The fourth match was one of two halves as former Slaz goalie Jack Mumford played in the outfield and scored the only goal to sink Doncaster, with Mumfords replacement Adam Davies producing some brilliant saves in goal.

The final game was hard and physical with big hitting from both sides and looked on course for a draw until Mumford’s late winner

SLAZENGER U12’s can look back on a season of success which saw them start in Section D of the Yorkshire Youth Hockey League and finish up in Section A.
The team has worked hard and molded well and progressed through the divisions with some very good victories to deservedly finish the campaign four sections higher.

Although in the last fixtures at the weekend they came up against some very stiff opposition they still manage to finish with smiles on their faces after performances they can build on for next season.
