Wickham Wanderers Tournament

2008-05-18T13:24:00.000-07:00

Well done to all the players today for the hard work in seven tricky games. Grady had a very impressive debut and, hopefully, we'll see him again next season! Ellis made some great saves in goal, Fraser made his usual excellent tackles, Marcus and Toby were full of running up and down the field, and Kristian scored the solitary goal!

Summer Tournaments

2008-05-05T13:04:00.000-07:00

The tournament due to be played on 10th May at Marlborough has been cancelled. I have managed to enter another tournament in Hungerford on Sunday 18th May, just for the morning. Please can you let me know by Friday if your son can play in this tournament.

The second tournament on Sunday 8th June in the afternoon is still on. Please can you let me know if there are any other players who are not available.

Training will continue on Mondays on 12th and 19th May, with the final one on 2nd June (so no training during the half-term holiday).

As you know we have only had a very small squad this season, if you know of anyone else who would like to play for the team next year then please let me know.

February and March Match Update

2008-03-02T13:08:00.000-08:00

In February the team played two matches, against Hungerford at Liddington and away at Ashton Keynes.

Hungerford played very strongly on 3 February in blustery conditions and unfortunately the Wasps were unable to score. Ellis received the Player of the Match award for his good defensive tackling.

The match against Ashton Keynes on 10 February was much closer, with Kristian scoring both goals in an exciting draw. Fraser received the Player of the Match award for his hard work in midfield.

March started with a Mother's Day victory against Greenmeadow. Goals were scored by Toby and Kristian. Toby was the Player of the Match for his excellent passing.

Squads: Kristian, Toby, Charles, Wiliam, Ellis, Tim, Fraser and Marcus

Sunday 27th January: U8 v Highworth Town B (with photos)

2008-01-27T09:37:00.000-08:00

This was a tough game, but all the players gave everything, working well as a team and defending strongly. Will received the Coaches' award for his tireless running in midfield. Marcus and Charles also played well in midfield and made lots of saves in goal, with a half each. Toby and Kristian kept running up front and were unlucky not to score. Ellis and Fraser (the captain) both defended well and put in lots of crucial tackles.

Sunday 16th December: U8 v Pewsey

2007-12-20T13:09:00.000-08:00

This was a tricky game played in very cold conditions. The team played well as they did their best to keep warm, in the absence of three of the squad.

William scored his first two goals of the season and Fraser scored his first goal too. Marcus and Charles took turns in goal, whilst Tim and Ellis took turns in attack and defence.

Player of the match was Fraser.

The next match will be on Sunday 6th January, against Pewsey at home. Training will re-commence on Monday 7th January.

Have a great Christmas and New Year.

Sunday 25th November: U8 v Wroughton Juniors B

2007-11-25T05:47:00.000-08:00

An entertaining friendly was played on Sunday morning against Wroughton Juniors B. The whole team played well, with some excellent stops by Charlie, and great defending and runs forward by Fraser. Tim was the player of the match after a very impressive defensive performance. Marcus, Kristian and Toby worked hard and passed the ball around well and scored four goals, Kristian getting two.

Under-8s - October Matches

2007-10-26T13:21:00.001-07:00

The team had just two games in October.

The first was a very close, entertaining game against Ashton Keynes. The final score was 2-2, with Fraser being awarded the player of the match trophy for his excellent defending.

The second game was a tougher match against Blunsdon Colts B. Marcus was the player of the match for trying hard in midfield. The team welcomed Ellis for his first game of the season.

Sunday 7 October: U8 v Ashton Keynes

2007-10-03T13:17:00.001-07:00

The match this Sunday is at home against Ashton Keynes. Kickoff is at 10am, so all players should arrive by 9:30am.

Under 8s - Start of the Season

2007-10-03T13:16:00.001-07:00

The Under 8s played four games in September.

The first match was against South Swindon and the team played very well to win, with Marcus, Kristian and Toby scoring goals. Player of the match was Kristian who worked tirelessly throughout the game.

Highworth Juniors were the next opponents, with Toby and Kristian scoring again and Fraser making some crucial defensive clearances in another win. Player of the match was Toby for never giving up.

The other two games were harder, resulting in defeats against Highworth Town and Hungerford Town. There were more goals for Toby and Kristian, with Charlie making some good saves at the other end. Players of the matches were Tim for working hard in defence against Highworth and William for playing an excellent game in midfield against Hungerford.

We have also welcomed Charles and Ellis to training and look forward to them playing for the team in the near future.
