Under 10s Girls End of Season Report 2008/09
Under 10s Girls Season Report
We started the season with a 2-0 win at Heygarth, which was really impressive as this was the first time the girls had been together as a group. We only had 1 player from last season and none of the others had played a competitive game of football.
Irby and Greenleas gave us a little more trouble but the gap closed at the end of the season in a narrow 2-1 defeat to Greenleas.
We won all of our games against Wirral rangers, and Manor took 3 attempts to beat us this year. Delta were our closest rival, we lost our first encounter but then went on to win the next 3 in league and cup. This is where we make a little history, being the first Upton girls team in a final.
We scored about 30 goals this season and conceded about 40, showing that we play a tight game and don’t give much away.
Partly due to discovering the bravest keeper in the league, Beccy, she was protected by dependable left back, Morgan, sparkling performances at right back, Charlotte, and determination all over the pitch from Caitlin.
The engine of the team; and where most goals came from (midfield) were the 3 E’s, Energised Emily, Enthusiastic Elisabeth, Entertaining Emma.
Our first choice strikers this season have been the talented pair, Georgia and Jasmine
Our last game, against Heygarth, we won 4-0 securing 4th spot in league. Sadly this would be the last time this team play together in the league as Emma and Beccy move to u12’s.
Thanks go out to all parents for their help and support this season, especially Jo Pugh for dealing with subs etc. and Keren Elson for bacon butties on Saturday mornings and providing our banner, flags and hair paint for the final
Management team: Kelly Jones/ Steve Johnson
