PREES TOURAMENT
In the Bees first proper tournament with short games we did exceptionally well. The most pleasing aspect was how we improved with every game as we got used to the short games and pace.
In the first game we lost to Shawbury 4-1 as the lads were caught a bit surprised at the pace against a decent opposition. George scored a fine goal.
In the 2nd game we were winning 1-0 with a couple of minutes to go after Yazan had scored. Some silly errors at the back let Worthen FC back in and frustratingly we conceded 2 late goals.
Our 3rd game pitched us against the hosts Prees FC and we earned a very solid 0-0 draw. We battled much harder in this game and our determination really warranted a win.
In our 4th game against Walsall we played the best football of the day as Samuel and George got stuck into the opposition and Ben and Henry found space to run. Henry scored a lovely 10 minute hat-trick, for a super 3-0 win.
Our results placed us in the Shield group and with two more matches we felt we could do well.
We played Bunbury in a very enjoyable game which we won 3-2 (Henry 2, George 1). Samuel's save, tipping over the bar, from a thunderbolt shot will be one of the memories of the season. If we had a golden glove award that save would win it!
In our final match we replayed Prees FC and this time around we won 3-0 to show how we'd improved over the day. Henry bagged his 6th and 7th and Ben got a deserved goal after excellent displays all day.
We didn't select a player of the tournament but;
Samuel's improvement was evident since understanding he can be physical! He loves a tackle!
Isaac played through the pain barrier all day and was in the wars! He was a warrior.
Henry got 7 goals and he was very happy with that! Enough said.
Ben's running and passing was brilliant - back to his best!
George's tackling and running was super. He scored 2 goals as well! All rounder.
Thomas is getting more physical every week...to match his undoubted skills!
Yazan gave us the unexpected in attack (and defence!) and showed some great skills!
Well done boys.
