SECOND "BIG KIDS TOURNAMENT A SUCCESS

Last Saturday (2nd May), it was the turn of the adults with the second annual "Big Kids Tournament once again sponsored by NSure. 

9 teams made up of dads, coaches and managers from the various teams in the club participated in a 5 a side competition in glorious sunshine at the Glyn Owen Centre

 The ‘Ladies’ beat the ‘Under 11s’ in the final 3-2 with Sam Gill scoring his second goal of the game to clinch the win in extra time

 It was a fun day with all the games played in a great spirit and gave the oldies the chance to show the kids how it should or shouldn’t be done! The winning ‘Ladies’ team had the advantage of including a few younger boyfriends and partners in their team, but having to put up with shouts of ‘come on ladies’ did sound odd.

This afternoon, the Under 11A team completed a memorable double with the addition of the ACYFL U11 Challenge Cup to their Division B title which was secured last weekend. 

The game against Worthing Dynamos FC was a closely fought encounter which ended 1-1.  Neither side was able to find a winner in extra time and Town eventually won the penalty shootout 3-1. 

The parents and players of both teams ensured that the game, which was played at Arundel FC was played in a great atmosphere throughout.
