Slazenger 5's faced tough opposition in Doncaster 7's but met the challenge with lots of spirit and hard work. Doncaster started the game more quickly and looked a well disciplined side, battling well in midfield and using their young, skilful players up front to great effect. Matthew Smith in the centre of defence had to work very hard with Adam Drake to keep the opposition at bay. After absorbing a lot of pressure Slazenger's did begin to mount some attacks of their own with debutants Owen … [Read more...] about Report: 06-10-2012 – Mens 5th’s (Dev.)

A good first morning for the Slazenger Boys U16 A team. Results as follows: Slazenger 2 - 2 Doncaster A slow start against Doncaster meant that Slazenger's defence had to be sound.
