SEPTEMBER RAIN STOPS PLAY!
The season did not kick off to a good start for many, due to the unseasonal wet weather, creating waterlogged pitches and causing the Lions U10’s Annual Tournament to be cancelled at the last minute. The U16’s and U12’s also had to call off their opening matches.
Despite this, the U13’s, coached by Mark Bailey, secured a supreme victory over Lingfield at the weekend, winning 7-3, with goals from Tom Price (1), Adam Wicking (2) and Sam Hayter (4).
The U11’s led by Paul Rogers and Paul Dollner, also enjoyed a successful opening game winning 6-0 against Henfield to launch their first 11-a-side season, with goal scorers Tyler Nightingale (3), Nathan Kennell(1), Dylan Spry (1) and Nicholas Bayne(1)
