BSYL - Yr 6 - 17th March

The Greens hosted Shirehampton in the first part of a double-header and it was the home side who came out of the blocks quickest. Omar opened the scoring with a fine strike from a tight angle and grabbed another when his shot was turned in by a Shirehampton defender. The Foxes third came when Danny's shot took a deflection and nestled low into the corner of the goal. In the second half Shirehampton found their feet putting the Foxes under pressure with some good passing football but were unlucky when the Greens broke quickly down the right, a good cross from Joseph McMurchie and Max Thrasher hit a fine volley over the keeper to make it four. Shirehampton then got the goal they deserved and the game ended 4-1.

The second part of Saturdays double-header also ended 4-1 to the Foxes but the game was tighter than the scoreline suggests. Shirehampton played this match a man down due to an injury but despite the disparity of numbers opened the scoring with a great run and super finish. As half-time approached the Foxes started to make the extra man count and Omar grabbed a brace to send the Foxes in 2-1 up. In the second half Shirehampton battled on and created several good chances and the Foxes were thankful to Archie for a number of good saves. The Greens sealed victory late on when Joseph McMurchie crossed for Henry Sweet to score and Henry grabbed a second near the end with another well taken goal.


The Whites eventually gained a comfortable victory, after a tough first half and a spirited start from Ingleside. It was goalless for the first 15 minutes, with both teams coming close, until Joey's header broke the deadlock, and he then added another before the break, as well as providing the cross for a close range finish from Sonny. In the second half Ingleside tired and faded slightly in the face of some excellent Foxes passing and the individual skill of Sonny . Both Sonny and Joey completed their hat tricks, to which were added beautifully taken goals from Jacob and Raul , Sam L and a rare strike from usual keeper Owen . Ingleside battled hard and forced a well deserved goal midway through the half. 10-1 to the Foxes
