it was good to see the progress that has been made over the last few months and the team's performance was good.
First up was FOA, a team of young players from Liverpool who are currently top of the league. A very close game ensued, but FOA's experience payed off with a 1 goal victory. Not bad considering they had an easy time against the C-team at the first tournament.
Another tight game was had against Manchester B. This was a disappointing game for the tigers with the C-team struggling to come back when they conceded a goal. The 5 out play wasn't quite there, but it was good to identify this and we'll work on it over the next few weeks before the final tournament.
A good discussion was had after this game as next was Kingston, who thought that the Tigers would be a push over playimg 5-out against us for the whole game. The C-team handled the pressure well and always looked dangerous when in possession of the ball. A rather clumsy own goal at the end of the first half sealed the deal for the tigers and managed to hold on under lots of pressure to take the victory, well done!
The confidence from this game spurred the team on in their last game against Scarlet ladies with a great amount of determination and a lot of hard work the team dominated the game and comfortably won.
This tournament is very encouraging for next season. With a bit more organisation and practice, the C-team will be very strong contenders for promotion. Keep up the good work.
Nicky.
